I think tyre expenses on this car are the most frightening thing.

It's filthy!

It'll be fine once my detailer sorts it out.

I feel more like a car trader this week.

Sold Swift on Monday as the Nanny has now gone from full time live in to very part-time.

Sold the GT3 yesterday to Porsche after my private buyer could not work out his **** from his elbow.

Now waiting for the butler to bring me my lunch!

He must have been busy then as it takes 8-10 hours to do it properly once!

Alan - glad he did the business with you.

He made my 90k mile E39 530 look better than new. It was immaculate.

He said it was in great nick for it's age - he said no Audi would look so good after those miles*















* or maybe he didn't

Nice car. Did you get this thrown in as matching pair for shopping trips?

Regardless of rarity or value, the new car (yours) looks so much nicer to my eyes then the 993 GT2 RS which just looks dated and old. Anubis will judge me severely for it though.
