Priorities mate!! They are indeed CHR's Luke.

Yeah got the same spoiler and a slightly different Lci diffuser. Cant say im a fan of those lights tbh. Would love to put the updated rear bootlid ad lights on, but its about £800 to do using used parts? No really worth the outlay.

Not seen one with that interior before? Love the sat nav screens in the new BMs and Mercs. Out of interest why didn't he go for the msport spec seeingnasnhe has a taste for sporty interiors? Nice car.

Good question. This one came up for sale at the right price and the right spec. He would rather have the right options ticked than fat bumpers. It's the Sport, so still has the better interior and subtle bodykit, but not the fat lairy bumpers of the M Sport.

He specifically wanted, 20d engine, 8 speed Sports automatic transmission, Professional multimedia and nav, adaptive M Sport suspension, servotronic sport suspension, comfort package and visibility package. That's a lot of options to find on a used car, and this was the one and only car with the right spec within budget. It was an ex manager's car at Ocean BMW in Falmouth, so a very high spec with not much use. Managed to get a 5 year service plan and still has the remainder of the warranty too. Got a blinding p/x deal on the Audi too.

He absolutely loves it! He's amazed by the engine and the gearbox. In fact, he just called me to say he's just averaged 67mpg on a 200 mile journey!

To be honest, the M Sports with the same miles and age are selling for about £5k more, even without all the above options. It's not worth it for a funky bodykit! He'd rather have the right spec.

Fair one, didn't realise there was such a difference in the price. My folks have just got an X5 recently, not such a difference in price on them between m and se spec.

Thanks, it was taken in Knowle. We've moved now though.

Ah right, yeah I lived in Consort Mews for a few years but have also moved now. You didnt have a VW California did you?

Picked up this C2S last week My first Porsche, and won't be my last!

Looks great mate, classy and purposeful.

[Thejimreaper]

Love the new breadvan, not as much as the C63 but still lovely!

[Thejimreaper]

That looks like a proper track toy and great fun.

[Thejimreaper]

£100k on a car not a good idea? but a boat is!! Is that not a contradiction?! Congrats on the new purchases.

Great big one - right over the front corner!

Or one that looks like a huge dust sheet?

Hehehe! We'll have to find you some sunglasses

Get a red door for it and you will look like your driving the car from the inbetweeners!

[Thejimreaper]

Yeah the PPP was a factory option not an after market add on generally. Dont think you have bought some horribly modded one. Looks tidy.

4340BB you change your cars more than I do and that's saying something, lovely looking M3. Nice bike as as well Leg.

Thank you for the nice comment.
And yes I do change my cars a lot. My wife is getting sick of it. And I admit I do need to stick with one car.
33 years old and have had over 40 cars.

That's awesome mate!! I thought I was doing well with 14 at 31!! That means I need to have 26 more in the next 2 years!

[NeverFlinch]

Very nice mate, would love a brand new car that no one else has abused!

[NeverFlinch]

That bike is awesome, so cool. I hope your planning on riding it with a lether sleevless jacket and a piss pot open face helmet! Stunning mate.

[NeverFlinch]

Loving the 750

Nice Eddie, when is she arriving? Is the C63 going?
