list price of the car approx 102k and i paid 82.2k, for a new, unreg car with all the extras. I thought that was ok!! they threw in a service and tyre discount as well. Made it slightly cheaper than the 991 (by about 2 k). From my experience now is the time to by a 991 or r8 as the discount offerred to me were fantastic.

incredible deal, no doubt helped by the facelift being announced.

I suspect the facelift model helped the discount as did the end of the 3rd 1/4 for the dealer being due. Still they offerred 3k more for my pex than most of the other dealers did , it would have been rude not to buy it ;-)!!. Audi uk put a lot into the deal apparently as this was the last manual special edition for sale in the country.

Yes but nothing a good hoon would'nt fix eh! Top marks for trying though.
Why do you think a good hoon would fix this inherent design flaw?
