Ghibli S. 2016.
Bought from Parks in Hamilton.

Have to say I love it. Very handsome.

Was going to get a QP GTS but the roads around Wiltshire were we live are not forgiving on something that big so the smaller car won the day.

It's a grey colour but has a lovely hue of bronze.
There is also the sports exhaust for waking up the neighbours on cold starts.

Have to say it is lovely inside. The materials in the cabin are lovely. The tech isn't exactly state of the art and the opening for the boot is narrow but we don't care. We bought it for the engine, looks, badge, and so many other aesthetics.

Our daily is an 05 Prodrive Impreza wagon. That takes care of the mucky and load carrying.

On Sunday we went to chose our christmas tree. The chap at the gate doffed his cap the car. When we had parked, he walked over and said 'you're not taking a tree home today then......'

Pics!

I know what you're saying about rural Wiltshire. I moved there with an M6 and sold it very soon after. I have a QP VI GTS and it`s a little lowered and widened in Dubai. I often wander about bringing it back to Wilts (near Oxenwood) . I doubt the QP you looked at would be any more difficult than a Ghibli in rural Wilts?

Anyyhoooooo Pics!!!
We nearly bought the GTS at Auto100 but it's just a tad too big for the roads. We'd spend all of the time messing up the wheels and mirrors in a hedge hoping the wreck of a car going past will take pity!

I'm hoping the Ghibli S at 410 bhp will give enough performance to make-up for the "missing" 2 cylinders.

I would dearly love a QP GTS. The engine and luxury........
