The car was MOT’d on the day I bought it, and I have just had a new MOT where it flew through with no advisories- a great year and 2,500 miles.

I got it down to Thorney for their inspection, and overall nothing major highlighted, but a bunch of normal wear and tear items identified so it’s back there in 6 weeks for some bits and pieces, the main bits being new engine mounts and rear suspension bushes etc

Also swapped the grey Pork for a red one that’s covered just 2k miles from new

Any particular reason you swapped from that old GT4 to the new one?
the grey one had 32k, was onto 2nd set of brake pads etc and needed a new windscreen

the red one had done 2,000 miles from new ! is literally brand new ! and slightly higher spec being a clubsport

That specific example is a lot of car for 80k ish! - I am assuming running costs / warranty costs must put people off, rightly or wrongly.
even more so with inflation running at 10%

I have a feeling 12C Spiders will start to creep up. Certainly the good ones.

Literally less than a handful on the market, and pound for pound the value is unreal.

None. I run the same small sticker on my 12C, GT4 and Project 8. No issues

I'd go bit lighter than this. New Jaguar has dome something similar. Looks stunning as is tbh I would not change anything.

What a car. Wanna swap for an Atom 3.5r and a couple of watches biggrin

Maybe a frozen satin gold for wheels. As previous poster said a bit lighter.
