Well boys and girls, it was a sad day when I handed the keys to my V12V to Justin at Works on Tuesday. I've loved owning that car and it really was a wrench to let it go. I employed every kind of man maths in existence, but I just couldn't keep it.
On the bright-side, I'll be collecting a V12SMR from Justin in a couple of weeks time, it's just having a few bits done first.
Pictures in due course.....
On a different note, if anyone is after a 2013 Morning Frost V12V then Works have one now (not SOR, it's their car). 9400 miles and absolutely mint. PM me if you want to know specifics, happy to help.

Ry , congrats and look forward to the pics.
How was the sales experience with Justin v The Barista ?!
It's been very pleasant to be fair. I dropped in unannounced last Saturday to see the car and Justin was spot on. We had a look around the car for 15 minutes, then he asked if we had time for a tour. Then spent then next 45 minutes wandering around Works in and out of all the different departments and chatting.How was the sales experience with Justin v The Barista ?!
I think working with Justin on future deals will be a pleasure to be honest.
Well boys and girls, it's taken a little longer than I'd thought, but here's the latest purchase.............Ceramic grey with cream truffle V12SMR 
Some of you may well recognise this car as previously having been owned by another PH forum member. Damian was a gent to deal with and to say i'm happy is an understatement.
I had the black exhaust finishers and CF mirrors and strakes swapped over from my V12. I also had the old V12 gearstick fitted, and for anyone wondering whether or not to do so, it works so so well. As it's quite heavy, I think it just helps weight those gear changes.
The only other addition I wanted to make was the black window surrounds, but at nearly two grand (yes seriously) I just can't justify that. I'm already poor enough now.
My my how different it is to the V12. Everything from the steering to the gear change seems so much lighter and easier. Some would argue that's a bad thing, but for me I am thrilled with the way it drives. Didn't make a single bad gear change all the way home either, although I was driving like an old woman.
