No margin in it. Look at the mileages on the cars that are strong money and then draw breath how those prices will dip over 20k.

Remember who called the great price bubble of 2015 wink

Function First have some element of choice for the poly gearbox mounts but you can have the same choice for cheaper and locally elsewhere from a one man band if you want.

that is the correct car, I tried to buy that car once, it was crazy money I think £49k 2nd hand at the low point of these cars . and new would have been £69k

bargin imo at this price, it's a very high spec car, very rare.

if that's not sold over the week end my name is sally

The last thing I need is another R , but I was very tempted to ring this morning , just to have ceramics for a while . £44k is where I think that car should have been .

Watch out for that PCCB car popping back up in trade. I would have had it if I was quick enough. Very quick private punter if it went that way.
