That is a good buy. Trust your experience & dealings with 'Swiss Tony' in sales went better than mine !. Ended up buying in Leeds at another Dealer. Unbelievable.

Have to say its light years different to the V8, much sharper. both my kids who have been out in it said the same thing, it's mean, and it growls. Am racing this weekend and now have to wait till Monday before I can get in it again, can't wait! Simon

Just driven to Brussels in the beast, stunning car, 6th gear overtaking is great, 5th gear is lively, 4th gear is insane. So comfortable with the lightweight seats, far, far better than the sports seats in my V8.
I now have two problems though; Keeping the speed down below three figures and not doing too many miles in it.

Easy solution to problem number 1 - come over here to Germany - and as for problem number 2 - I shouldn't worry after all it is suposed to be driven...

Sorry but once again this is no bargain!There is a 2012 car for sale which can be bought for 100k with around 1000 miles so how can a 10mdl with 9k miles on only be 8k less ? The bargains are with the new, nearly new ones.

The bargains are with the new, nearly new ones. agree - my dealer's take on it is that when people come in the showroom, once it's lowish miles (less than say 10k) but more than a nominal mileage (say 3k miles +) the buyers don't care about age between 1 & 3 yrs old as they will put a private plate on, they all look the same & all are similarly specced, so they won't pay much more for a 1 yr old one than a 3 yr old one

Simon Viagra! But with the V12 the excitement lasts longer!

The bargains are with the new, nearly new ones. Then you are not in tune with the 2nd hand market. Before advertising I have already a very acceptable firm dealer offer close to my asking price. I only advertised to see if I could achieve more, as if someone on here they know the cars history, one 'careful'  lady owner. If no takers it goes to the dealer in a week or so. I am guessing but I reckon they would want to realise £97/98,000 to be viable. Di
