Spotted this example headed south on the A1 toward the Black Cat on Friday afternoon -

They look great with the 'right' rear wing.

the dealer doesn't have the best of reputations

[Sarnie]

Perhaps, but these were (supposedly) selling for £125k+ 12 months or so ago, even less desireable colours. Seems strange that they can't even get £104k for this car given how limited the numbers are.....

think if the price of something is too good be true then there is generally a good reason for that.

I spoke with the dealer in regards to changing from my GTR to this Superleggera, wasn't impressed with them so went elsewhere. Plus the speakers cut into the door cards and aftermarket headunit put me off.

So I picked up a black one instead.

It's certainly something I'd check - there are three white 08 SLs in the UK - one is mine (and clean but mentioned in the Daily Mail), another is owned by another PH'er (also clean IIRC) and then there's this one...

As for the car itself, the door cards, whilst reluctantly drilled by a known and trusted dealership, would ruin the car for many.

Thanks Guys. I'll get pictures posted later today.

When i spoke to Neil from VVS, he confirmed that the car had a clean history with no accident damage and hadn't been tracked. However he also told me that it was the only white one remaining in UK...

I'm not sure who the previous owner was, I bought the car from Paul at Lamborghini Sevenoaks.

nice pic, danny's car was the privately listed car, so not the one you bought from sevenoaks....

[Jag.]

Thanks guys I love it. The SL's look amazing in black, just a pain to keep it looking mint!

Yeah i just checked the V5 and the previous owner was called Adam.

Lovely car Jag - my preference for 08 SLs is white, black, orange, yellow...any other colour (there was one pink one - likely wrapped)...and then grey.
