Thats a brave spend of £103k given the very luke warm review.... Did you enjoy it when you drove it? Was the ph review overly critical?

He is speccing it for the showroom, so it's not his money. Although I do acknowledge that the net cost to his dealership might have an impact on his overall compensation.

With a registration plate starting with YB I conclude that my M5 Touring started life registered to BMW and it probably has 90% of the available options fitted - that M6 will end up as a great deal for someone eventually. Whether that person is the first purchaser of the car or a subsequent purchaser is the big questions.

Yes, thankfully it's not my money!!! Could you imagine my wife if i came home and said I've Just spent 100 grand on an M6 darling!!!! I got away with it with the Atom, and the SV buying them without telling her, but don't think it'd work again!!!!

Ultimately it will be a demonstrator vehicle, so It will get sold to someone net of some Margin, Demo Bonus and write down, so perhaps not too much of a risk!!!
