Picked up my 360 just over a week ago from a dealer just a mile or two away from me(www.performancetime.co.uk)which was ironic as I've travelled 100's of miles looking at poorly described cars up and down the country.
Chris who owns the company presents the cars in a environment which is befitting such cars, I've got fed up turning up to find an odd Ferrari wedged in an old shed or amongst a few Fords and Vauxhalls, not snobbery but if I'm parting with Lot's of money I want to think my investment has been looked after.
The car was by far the best I'd seen and having checked the history thoroughly a deal was done. The following week I drove the car home took for a blast the next day and apart from a very minor rattle everything seemed cool. Gave Chris a ring about the rattle and he suggested I drop it down to Migliore cars in Bromsgrove and get them to sort it out at his cost. As it happens Kevin from Migliore picked the car up and a couple of hours later called to say it was sorted by tightening a loose bolt. He also fitted a battery conditioner for me at a very reasonable rate.
So both the dealer and service shop come highly recommended in my opinion. Kevin at Migliore has an enthusiastic and knowledgeable approach and has surprised me with the reasonable service rates and spare part cost's. Chris meanwhile would seem to have a stock of some very nice cars.
With regard the 360 I am very pleasantly surprised, it's a very easy car to drive, comfortable and people do seem to like seeing it out on the road with only positive responses so far. I get the feeling I'm going to enjoy this car very much.(-:

The only bad experience of the whole saga was selling my GT3. After having some fantasist piss me about for the thick end of two weeks. (serves me right, didn't get a deposit of the pratt), He even sent me a photo of the bankers draft to show he was serious and went on to cancel half a dozen times when he was supposed to pick the GT3 up and then disappear when I demanded he send me a deposit. Ironically I sold the car to a chap from Newcastle (same area as the fantasist) who did a deal with me over the phone unseen and came collected and paid for the car in one go.

Oh and I'm still trying to get my deposit back of another dealer who tried to sell me a car with a dodgy history, but that's another story.

So all in all I'm glad I made the move, it's very different from the GT3 and still a very special car. I'm looking forward to getting out in the 360 as soon as it stops bloody raining.

Cheers
