In all seriousnes, the 7 series was the transport of choice for me when I was growing up as my father had a considerably generous company car allowance. He made the move from Daimlers Double Six's and the like ![]() Do you really need the size of a 7 though, the 5's are bloomin big as it is and you'd not get near £92k with the best of specs. ![]() MERCEDES GL350 - Metallic Navy Blue w/Grey interior GOING: BMW F31 335D MSport+ xDrive Touring GONE: Land Rover Discovery 4 HSE - Stornaway Grey w/Black Interior (wish we'd kept it ![]() GONE: BMW F10 520D MSport - Carbon Black GONE:MY12 RRS SDV6 HSE Sumatra/Ivory/Grand Black Privacy glass |

Why not just move the RRS around the company as a pool car, take an allowance for a company car and get yourself a nice sports car to get too and from work, and use the RRS for site visits etc etc. saving a fortune in cct. |

I was wondering something similar. Well, I thought "why have a RRS as a company car when you could just buy one?" 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders

As Bradders says, needs to be arms length.

Just get some written trade in valuations from a couple of garages. We buy any car would be a start and one other.
