Honestly not sure on price. It was done as part of a bundle.... Wrap, detail, ypipe, etc. but doubt it will be that expensive....200-400 something like that.
I wanted a matte finish to stop sunlight reflecting.
Cool thanks Graham!

Yep me too. Registered ages ago using the same name as on here, emailed to ask why I couldn't post. Never heard back so in desperation I registered with a different name last night and still not had a activation email. Really need to put the offer up there before that car goes.

I know Ian is on there and think Graham is too so either may be able to PM the owner in question.

Took some friends out for a spin yesterday and managed to get one in the back, would say they front passenger was squashed as the footwell is surprisingly deep.

Hi Ian
Could you just ask if they can check if there's any problem with registrations? or at least check that activation emails are being sent out?
Cheers
Matt

Yep all sorted, bout 30 mins after you left they rang to say it was ready so quite a quick job!

Did you go back for the courtesy car? Prob not because you sound really busy at work!

Wife is being very non-committal, won't give me a definite yes or no. We're away on holiday next week so she said "well you're not going to do anything before holiday ARE YOU?"

So, I either put the deposit down on the GTR and work my magic on holiday or risk losing this one (I'm sure there will be others, just not local and I will have to go through getting the finance agreed again).

I think our other half's are cut from the same cloth!
Walking past an Evoke in Waitrose carpark.. "These are nice, why don't you get one of those or the Audi 4x4 Like Luci's across the road?"

I've done what you did before but on smaller purchases, it's never gone down very well. At Christmas I bought a new TV, I had previously shown her the one I wanted and had the verbal 'yeah it's ok I suppose', which was all I needed to then go and order it, but this was apparently not what she imagined would happen. She likes the TV now though.
Weirdly, she was quite anti me getting the 3 series Beemer but now I get "Well I like you're current car, what's wrong with it?".

oh and her other argument against the car was...
"What if mum wants to come on holiday with us next year?"

So I have to drive a certain sized car that'll be big enough for ferrying her mum on holiday with us for 1 week next year???

God I'm so tempted to slap the deposit down on that GTR
