    Hi All,

    Longtime observer on this forum and had quite a few cars in the exotic car space and based in the U.K.

    Have put a deposit on this car and having it inspected next week by a car guy I trust. Anything he should be looking out for? Unfortunately I can’t go inspect in person due
    to the covid lockdown where I am.

    Cheers

    Oli

    Service due under 7 year plan in May 2021 which is free I am told.

    Have checked with main dealer in U.K. and all services have been completed on time. Will need to purchase 4th year warranty in May then before New Power warranty programmer year after. I have factored this into the purchase price though.

    That's a gorgeous car. As long as it's had regular oil changes, has not had paintwork and the clutch is good, I'd not be concerned.

    Evening All,


    I have done the deal with collection on the 22nd of Jan!

    Got the car booked in for an Audison thesis upgrade. Going for the stock/stealth system utilising the upgraded JBL amp but swapping out the existing speakers and adding an underseat sub. Love music and this car is going to be a keeper car for me so happy to pay for this upgrade as will be putting proper miles on this car with road trips already planned!

    Hopefully have the car home with me by the end of the month!
