Ford GT prices

How difficult is the SVA test for something like this ? Will you really be able to drive home from the airport ? - be interested to hear how you get on

 

There is one in the showroom of Clive Sutton in St. John's Wood.

355fiorano - you live within a mile of there - can you pop down and tell us what they are asking?

 

I'll pop in there tomorrow and ask for a test drive

 

I'll be able to drive it on trade plates until Monday when it gets SVAd.

The people I'm using could SVA a wheelbarrow - LOL. Seriously though, it won't cause any problems.

 

Popped in there the other day.

They got the Ford GT in last Friday and sold it to a passer by for £250,000!!!

Apparently a UK supplied fully warranted car is going to fetch close to £300k!!!

 

Any news of your delivery yet ? I was one of the UK rejects (story of my life....)

 

Yep - I've got a January build date with a February delivery.

Only extra's are the BBS magnesium alloys at £1,600 and a ridiculous £2,700 for a painted stripe!!!

Apparently most of the UK cars are red - I, like Clarkson, have gone for white with a blue stripe.

Very excited!

 

You're a very lucky chap !

The essay you wrote for the application form must have been seriously impressive

 

Ah.. but that isn't what he's ordered... that's old news of what he was GOING to order.. ;-)

Checkout my site http://www.gt-owners.com dedicated to Ford GT owners (in it's infancy) but will have a UK bias

 

Is the McIntosh audiophile sound system standard on the European cars ?

Have you been offered the "upgrade" exhaust to take it from Euro noise levels to USA noise levels ?

 

No, the Mcintosh sound system wasn't offered as I dont think it has the ability to switch between the .5 frequency on FM that the US uses.

Dagenham Motors in Colindale is the UK sole dealer and service centre and they're going to arrange a tailored system to be installed locally if required.

One of the reasons for the Euro delay was getting an exhaust system that worked within the regulations. As a result the standard system is by all acounts not as loud as it should be.

Officially, they'll be no exhaust upgrade - but we're all expecting to be offered an alternative as an after fit very shortly.

 

Is the new GT40 available in the Gulf colours?

 

If you paint it yourself.

 

Hello Jim,
have you already driven the Replica and compared it to your original one?

hope you & your family are doing well
cheers
Wolfgang

 

No.

BTW: Forgot to say that Clarkson has gone for dark metallic blue with a white stripe. He prefers the white cars, but is worried that the panel gaps will be too wide/unsightly.

 

Bramshaw are advertising 2 unreg cars for sale in today's S Times. Red/white & silver/black.

How much do they want for them ?

 

POA!

 

What do you think after Tiff's less than flattering review last night?

 

If his reviews reflected the same as everyone elses, then I might take them with less of a pinch of salt. He had some valid points, such as it being quiet in the cabin, but as far as the gearchange and clutch, they're perfect !

 

I guess this means you've taken delivery - congratulations - photos ?

 

Theres one for sale at Avro Motors Cars in Weybridge at £199,000......its in yellow!

 

There is one up for £249k in the Times today...

Judging by how many are for sale of the 'limited' UK allocation, if I could "short" a car, then this would be it.

I wonder if anyone offers car value derivatives?...
