My First Spotted! lol
Discussion
Don't know why I'm excited, well it has been a slow day for me. Anyway popped into Norwich Audi this afternoon, looking for a boring euro box runaround when I saw a DB9 with a number plate that seemed familiar but couldn't think why, it was only when I came on here just now I remembered, the plate was silmilar to a certain member on here and I notice in his profile it's his dads....so hello Darrens dad!! lol - Fantastic looking car by the way.
Well it looks like we were all there!! Any others? lol.
I was in the mud-splatted S2000, I parked away from all the new shiney metal! There were so many new cars up for sale, ready to go.
Loved that white S5, I didn't look at it as it would of made come home and spend too long playing with my calculator.
So......is the S5 going to be for you?

Its Nurburgring blue although some may call it Ladyboy Blue but I like it when it's clean and polished but it's time for a change and I'm just looking for a nice comfy everyday car at the moment and no I can't afford your V8 with the miles I'm starting to do 
Lovely colour though, what are you looking at now?
Lovely colour though, what are you looking at now?I'm not entire sure though - they were circa 70k a year ago, I know all cars depreciate but that's a hell of drop. Mrs wants a Range Rover sport - but I could be skint tomorrow so figure should go for the Aston whilst I can!!
Not in a rush to sell the S4 so will be pushed into that decision when I get a buyer.

Well....how random!
3 PHers at the same dealership, at the same time!
Leondrums, I saw (and heard) you leaving the dealership...lovely colour combo, and a nice roof colour
I pointed out to Dad that the S5 would "sound something like that", as you left
I can't recall seeing your S2000 though, Paul
They are fantastic looking cars, with the gorgeous V-Tech 
Sadly, I'm not looking for a convertible! The S5 is fantastic. I'm a little concerned with rear seat head room, and I'll be booking a test drive, when the Audi chap gets back to me.
We also went to enquire about the R36 Passat and C63 and E63 AMG. It's amazing how the service differs between Audi, VW and Mercedes, despite them all being Robinsons, VW and Audi being top notch, Mercedes being the most unhelpful egits the world has ever seen!

Hi Gary, I may well take you up on the offer. Just got to book these Audi and VW test drives, and then you'll be hearing from me 
My age seems to be a factor in these test drives, though. I'm 23, and VW want me to be on my own insurance for a test drive, and the Audi guy even said it may be an issue - he had to check with head office
How will Mercedes Ipswich look upon someone my age coming to test drive the cars?

VW and Audi? Get a sportscar man!
I've already asked if 2 cheaper cars would be viable (one sports car, one "boring" car), but the answer came back a definate no.
I need at least 4 seats and nearly new with full warranty. The E320 will then be the summer/show car

But that's two expensive cars... I'm not following the logic here...I need at least 4 seats and nearly new with full warranty. The E320 will then be the summer/show car
Why do you need nearly new with full warranty? That's a recipe for losing shedloads in depreciation! If I wanted a cheap sensible everyday car I'd take about £2,000 and log onto Autotrader or take a trip to my local car auctions.

Rather than one expensive car, have two cheaper cars. That's what I meant Why do you need nearly new with full warranty? That's a recipe for losing shedloads in depreciation!

But Dad wants a nearly new car with a warranty.
If it was my choice, I'd buy a cheaper car and give my current car more power!

Oh well, it's his money I suppose and he doesn't want his son in some perceived 'rustbucket deathtrap' (ie more than 3 years old). It's a common misconception but that's what keeps the dealers going!
My S-Type Jag is 7 years old with 134K miles and everyone says how nice it is. And it's worth about £4K. Me win
