No

£55,000

January 2011

The car was up for £55,000 and the seller was private an wouldn't budge on the price. Not suprising though with the work thats been done on it(722bhp)!

I recieved a lot of inheritance money for my 21st birthday and went nuts and bought my dream car :)

The seller was a mature bloke and was a good laugh. He gave me every bit of info i needed to have the car and how to treat the beast right

Driving it
What's it like to drive?
I thought it would be a pain in the arse but its got drivability in mind and is very easy considering the power and torque outputs. The front splitter is low though so be careful with high speed bumps or curbs
What's it like to park?
Its a long car but the car is equipped with 4wheel steering and actually helps when parking at slow speed!

Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
Ive owned it for 9 months and have put only 2,000 miles on it. Nothing has gone wrong yet though :)
What's most practical about your car?
Its quicker than any Porsche or Ferrari with the added bonus of 2 rear seats and a boot big enough for a weeks shopping!
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
Love the LSD screen in the dash plus the car has an aftermarket valve timing system which is amazing on the track!
