A mate needs an auto due to disability. What's the crack with regards auto Ro's etc?

Given that there is only one auto 'Ro in the country (allegedly) he'd need to look at VXR8 or an HSV.

... or convert a manual one overwink

There are vxr8 auto's for £25k second hand, or mysty will fill you in. His is adapted, I think you can buy EX VAT smile

I recommend the vxr8 path, because that what I have!

I drive my vxr8 auto on hand controls, bought new I got the VAT knocked off, all you need is the DLA404 form.

A second hand one will still work out cheaper, what else does your mate need to know?

That's great for now thanks. He'd be looking for a second hand one and not for a little while yet. I was just singing the praises of my Ro and wondered what the best option for him would be.
