Evening all. I'm after something a little more adult after scooting around in an Ibiza Cupra for the last year or so and one of these has caught my eye. Anything I should be looking out for when I take it out for a run around in a couple of days. ZX10R NIN I know you know quite a bit about these motors and often recommend them, so some feedback from you, if you're around would be most appreciated. Cheers!

Like all cars make sure everything works apart from that there's nothing to really look out for, although they did lose the AMG seats on some of the 17 plate & onwards cars.

It's all Mercedes apart from the bodywork so everything is proven.

Good to hear, my old man was a mechanic all his life, so he'll be getting dragged along. This has heated/leather seats, no idea if they are AMG or not, but they can't be any worse than the Cupra. Getting in/out of that has not been good for this old mans back!!! And thanks.

AMG seats are easy to spot as the headrest is incorporated in the seat, like the ones in the car below:

Hope it works out for you smile

These seem like an utter bargain, really got me interested now. What is the automatic gearbox like for smoothness and reliability?

Really enjoying it thus far. It's an absolute luxury compared to the Ibiza and quite nippy still. Just need to get used to one or two of the controls (I've indicated randomly twice already laugh ). Feels absolutely massive when you're used to practically sitting on the floor.
