    Imho the car is worth every penny of the price tag and if I was wanting one I would honestly pay it to be able to have a limited edition car of such standard, I wish you luck with the sale but I doubt you will need it as its one hell of a motor.

    Thanks Pete, If the offer still stands I will pop over one day for a chin-wag and let you have a look at the car and I will have a butchers at your car also?

    James has sent me a PM with the Purple 850 and wants to have a meet up also

    Cheers

    Oi, don't forget mini me....where Pete goes I am never more than an 855 length away!
    Would be an honour to see the Gul in the flesh before it goes onto its new owner.

    Well I dont like to mess about and like I said yesterday I wanted to get the car tested early and I managed to get the car MOT'd this afternoon and I am happy to say it passed with no advisories!

    I had gone through everything with a fine toothcomb when it was on the ramp and I did the Oil n Filter last weekend so knew it was tip top. Nice and clean on the emissions too.

    So all I have to do now is pull my thumb out and make a for sale advert when I am ready to let her go!

    Cheers Simon

    Great news about the mot, although in fairness there was little doubt that it wouldn't have passed.
