    That would open a massive can of worms - how would the owner, a layperson, have any idea how much a used import should cost the dealer? Unless LTA publishes a set of guidelines... till then, for the buyer, ignorance is bliss :)

    good luck with the exams.

    i love the f1 paddle transmission on the 430 - not really an auto car though, more like a clutchless manual if you know what i mean. can't really get engaged in a car unless you are doing the gear changes yourself so a pure autobox doesn't cut it for me.

    like jon, i am driving around in a manual v12 and it's intoxicating. don't have the 3 hour jams here which might make me feel otherwise. prior to the dbs, my last two manuals were the gt3 and the 355, two other pretty special cars.

    having said all that, when you engage the sport mode in the rs6, apart from holding the gears when you upshift (like most autos do in sports mode), it also blips the revs when you downshift - an automated "heel and toe" if you will.

    summary: f1 transmission great - manual transmission great - conventional autobox weak but rs6 autobox not bad.

    not really ... generally the rule of law says "caveat emptor" --- let the buyer beware

    besides ... if it looks too good to be true, it prob is ...

    u only enjoyed the run back? .. a bit too much traffic but the run up was faster :D

    he hasnt visited the site yet .. I guess he's still quivering .. or on the toilet :eek:

    they replaced the tail light and ran engine diagnostics which showed up an abnormality. They say it's nothing immediately serious but they want to take a closer look at it next week as it's "something new" to them. That being said it still ran ok on the run back despite the ontrack incident. :)

    it's going in to get the wrap repaired next week as well.
