Most owners I've spoken to have said they are definite keepers as the longer you own one the more you extract from it and then appreciate how much of a stand out car it is.

I've had a lot passenger rides and been lucky to also have a few drives but as it wasn't my car those drives were very sedate and careful for obvious reasons and respect to owners despite 1 telling me to thrash it and drive it like I stole it.

I knew straight away even driving at 6/10 its an incredible machine.
My worry now is that if they have all fallen into hands of enthusiasts then everyone is going to be keeping them and supply will dry up

I bumped into an owner at McBrum yesterday and he was saying its the best car of 7 supercars and hypercars that he owns and its a keeper. Reckons he has done 15k in it from new.

Turns out he was a £63m euromillions winner according to the dealer so I guess he can have anything he wants

They are a keeper, done nearly 17k in mine, a trip next week will add another 1k or so, miles and smiles.

Yes that's correct he did mention the Senna but as I didn't know him or about his lottery win at the time, the conversation didn't extend to all his other cars as I didn't want to be too nosey.
I was really only quizzing him over his 675LT experience which was all very positive. He obviously specced it from new and was a 1 of 1 special MSO dark metallic green with carbon wing louvres
He did mention one of his mates with a 675LT had put sports cats on it and that the car sounded even more incredible

Lucky guy ! Well very lucky obviously

Yak, it’s odd but I didn’t see the rotor in your list of options, but in an image on the first page it clearly has it coming out of the roof. Was this a later addition. If so, where did you get it??!

It’s not often I want to look past a car like that, but everyone loves a chopper (so to speak).

I'm not, I bought my 12C from them and my 675 from Manchester but my local dealer is Bell & Covill in Surrey. Cheers
