i have finally done it

Went out last weekend looking at RR sports with a budget of around £15k. Looked at about 7 or 8, most of which were absolute sheds Shocked
The last trip of the day was to a dealer in nottingham to see a 55 plate HSE, however i didn't make it past this one Shocked

2008 3.6 HST

Needless to say my £15k budget was blown out of the water by about 10 grand Whistle but i now have a car i hhave wanted since they first came out. Thumbs Up

Few small jobs to sort but nothing major (upto now Confused )

Happy bunny mode well and truly ON Mr. Green

Not bothered cleaning mine yet pal, Mrs has it at the mo. Was looking at the v8 myself but just wanted the right one for the right money and this one was the best I'd looked at for the money so bought it.
