Law states you can return a vehicle and all contracts or finance have cooling off periods!

Look it up doesn't matter who it is or what dealership you bought it from
When you buy a used car from a licensed motor dealer, you're entitled to a cooling-off period of 1 business day. You can cancel the contract during the cooling-off period without large penalties. A licensed motor dealer cannot refuse to grant you a cooling-off period. There is no cooling-off period for new

Moan at someone spending £5k to do 850 miles in a 720S and then claim you're squirreling away enough money to buy a new house every 12 months rofl
Haha, but remember a 720s costs more than the average house, and a lot more than the average slum BTL smile

Imagine what it costs once you've fitted internal locks to every door...

This thread delivers on many levels.

By brother also has his own YouTube channel, I won't share the name as not sure if I can do but it's basically him working on his own car/my cars and events that we go to together. A lot of it is around E30's and Skyline's as that is what he owns and I own.

U know what I could actually afford the payments but not the initial deposit required I'm in the middle of saving for a second house to rent out as I'm paying cash for it hence for me I'm 10yrs away from supercar ownership as I should be buying the house for cash in the next 24 month then another 12 month later then another 12 month after that currently banging money away is more important than cars atm
How does your maths add up? Takes you 24 months to save for the first house, then every 12 months after that?

Quick question , on you tube do these guys ever answer a question as to me it seems they don't.
I know Lovecars and Petrol Ped always send a thank you message or reply for watching which imo is a nice touch.

Depends what channel you watch! My team and our do our best to reply to as many messages and comments as we can across YouTube, Instagram, Twitter and Facebook but it is literally thousands a day and that takes huge numbers of man hours.

May I ask why you constantly refer to the miles somebody covers in a certain car, like it has any bearing on their ownership experience? Also, that raises a further question. What does the mileage need to be in order to confidently say that they have "ownership experience" as you refer to it.

If we take the example of the McLaren 720s, TGE could have experienced it on his favourite road, he might have driven in convoy with his mates, he could have experienced positive comments from the people on the street. Hell, he could have taken it to the Nurburgring or just lapped a nearby roundabout a few thousand times. The last two examples may have been deliberately obtuse but you get the idea.

Would you say somebody has had proper "ownership experience" of a VW Golf GTI just because they have covered 10,000 miles on the motorway, even if they haven't utilised every possible feature? They have met some arbitrary mileage quota, at least.

that just prove some ppl judge a book by its cover yet way off the mark?
Do you not see the irony? I'd be concerned if you don't.

I couldn't decide if I would have done this or not, I'm definitely a bit of a loser when it comes to rules and regulations to do things right, and that doesn't look fun.

However, that car!
Great experience but what a ****ing idiot!

FFS, what is so difficult to understand? Shmee, Paul Wallace et al have nice cars to attract people to their businesses; cars are the things that make them money. TGE has a full-time day job, co-runs a reasonably sized fitness business as well as a few smaller businesses and spends the fruits of his labour on his passion: cars, which in turn probably help generate a larger audience for his businesses as a nice sideline. I'm amazed he has any time to drive them at all to be honest and £5k to do 850 miles in one of the fastest supercars around at the moment doesn't sound too bad to me; I highly doubt £5k is 20% of TGE's annual earnings wink
Plus taking time to read and reply to this thread - he really has no time.

Please put a clear description next time so I don't end up clicking on another dreadful CAPSLOCKED, clickbaiting, 'stupid wker pose in-front of car', regurgitated and completely content-free Archie vid.

This also applies to Seb. Any video by either linked her MUST have a clear description, preferably in big bold letters, and maybe hide the link in spoilers to make it harder for people to click it by mistake. Thanks.
