Great looking car!
The dealer is definitely able to get the build sheet, he's just lazy. I got a build sheet for my 2010 last year from a dealer here in Poland, so why wouldn't it work from the UK?

The variable dampers, if they break (and they eventually do) will default to the “hard” setting. Actually, just one is enough to give an impression of overly hard suspension.

Just for the record - a brand new Edition One RR Sport was bought for 240k (that's UK pounds) today at my local dealer and the cheapest insurance (full coverage) was 10k per year. |

Isn't the L494 self-supporting and not a body-on-frame construction? |
