I think I would be tempted to pay slightly more and get the one with the s charger.

Known cars here?

Was that a drunken yearning for home Andy? scratchchin

As has been said, the blue one has been the owner of Elite's car for quite a while now, so you can guess it's going to be a good one that he picked for himself.

He's also got an ex Walkinshaw family E2 HSV GTS that hasn't been advertised yet. Not sure if it is already spoken for, but if you are interested, then you might want to give him a call.

Yes as Ian and Dave have said the blue SC VXR8 has been my own car for last 18 mths. With brand new Worrec exhaust, service, mot and new front pads/discs this month - doesnt make sense to sell, but only advertised as something else has been offered coming up in May/June.

Drove it yesterday and nearly pulled the advert confused

I really like the look of the black one although the blue is my favourite r8 colour

Is the blue r8 the one that previously lived in Kent?? 007 knew the owner I believe he emigrated

wow I know the blue one needed some work but I'm more than a little stunned to see it at 19.5k. Prices appear to have been rising across the board but didn't think it was that much. At this rate they'll be worth more soon than what Vauxhall dumped the 09 plates on the market for.
