    I wasn't planning on selling. I was offered 10K more than I paid nearly 2 years ago... so I bit. Now wishing I hadn't. (2009 bought in 2012)

    The car was completely trouble free.

    Yup. The search begins.

    Well Simon I have done the same thing. I sold my Mclaren 12C after a little issue. I miss the car :(

    Good luck finding something else that excites you even more.

    Best

    Hi Lee. Hope you and Joy are well. Amanda and I miss you guys!

    I honestly think I'm going to get another GTC. I've considered a Maserati GT Cab,... but the trunk is absurdly small. I was provided with a RR drop head coupe for a 3 day test drive,... but it was too much for me. Too much attention. And the car is so large, it swallows me whole. We'll see. But the Bentley GTC is a tough package to beat.

    This is perspective for me. I considered selling my E-Type, especially when a few nice offers were thrown my way.

    Glad I didn't! Good luck finding a replacement - I'm sure you will!

    Before I clicked on this thread I thought it was going to be about someone buying a new F-Type!

    Do I take it that Contie GTCs are going up?

    and I am sure you will find what you want. I drove a bently at Ultimate motors. I was impressed with the power the car demonstrated, 600hp.

    I rode in the new Maserati coup for a short drive with Anthony King just before I bought the new Lambo. I was very impressed with the new Maserari. It was a very comfortable and refined car. I never liked to older M cars I drove. This new M car was tempting.

    I know what you mean about the Rolls. They have a wraith which is smaller and I like the lines of the car. You may look into that.

    Glad to hear you and your family are doing well

    Best

    Lee and Joy

    There's no shortage of those GTCs and everyday more are coming in off lease. Get a newer one with some warranty left. Not to mention hte new V8TT is much better and reliable than the 12

    My car was an '09 GTC Mulliner. Test driving a GTC "speed" this week. I'm hoping the suspension isn't too firm...

    Anyone lived with a "speed"?
