These are such great cars, currently drive a 458 spider, but had a couple of gransports and always, and still do, yearn for a GS victory...one day I will, funny how in a whole catalogue of porsches & other F cars & maseratis, the GS & particularly the victory is the one I am particularly fond of. See there is a lot of love round here for them too, great great car, enjoy it, ever so slightly jealous TBH

If only there was a UK one in Bianco Fuji! Sadly, there isnt frown

I'd take you're 'old' 07 car over every other GS in the country.

Cheers Pork, you know I should never of let that one go,big mistake that car was indeed my favourite car bar the spider ( which is BF as well incidently), and to be honest I still search the classifieds for GS's to see whats floating about, you never know it may come up again.
I could get back into that & be perfectly happy , and have a bit of cash to invest...maybe one day....

That MCV is stunning, congratulations on the purchase, coming from Richard Grace the car will be perfect when you collect it

I've never seen let alone driven an MCV but love my standard GS enough to know they must be epic

I'm especially fond of mine since getting rid of the secondary CATS and central resonator

Only ever seen one other GS and i was in mine at the time, until a 4.7 GTS comes into my price range i can't think what i'd possibly change it for and it'd still be tough to swap it for the GTS.

I've given up on using mine as a daily though as it's horrible to drive in traffic and the clutch only lasted 20k

You know I had a 2012 GTS MC shift ( funnily again in BF paintwork ) but I would still take the GS over that, it just felt more special,( particularly inside ) and it was a better size for the Yorkshire roads.

Yep, cracking car. I saw it when it was for sale at HR Owen a few years back. Was out of my range at the time but may have been tempted until the grumpy buggger of a sales man popped his head out the door (it was pooring with rain, so hardly a tyre kicking day!) "couldn't sell you that even if I wanted to. I have a blue 4200 for £35k if you're interested...".

IIRC, it was £38k. Even on a miserable St Ablans morning, it looked superb.

From memory, there are 5 BF GSs in the UK, they don't come up often and sell fast when they do. The lad who owns the next youngest BF (56 plate) I think considered selling recently, but decided to keep hold. I know of two of the other three but again, owners not keen to part with them.

She's just getting clayed and waxed!!!!!

Is it worth doing some show to let others at least see those seats??

Hope she really is as good as people say.

Thanks all and update to follow.

60/180 now lives with me. Previously had a GS Coupé and a Spyder but as I preferred the Coupé I decided to sell both and get the MC Victory. You never know what life will bring but I envisage she will not be for sale again in a very long time!

It is like a normal GS turned up to 15.... It is sharper, feels faster and more nimble and that interior is a very special place to be. I initially wondered if I had done the right thing until I had the chance to drive out on roads I really knew, now I am totally smitten with it.

Thank you.

The pictures of the MCV are trapped behind the photobucket wall - I don't suppose anyone has the pictures elsewhere?
