I've gone and done it and purchased a P1. I'm now on my 3rd scooby and a confirmed nutter.

Just a quick thanks to those who have answered my questions and helped make up my mind. Including the Bristol crowd from the Exmoor run and especially SteveB for his helpful advice and info.

Off to pick it up next weekend and handover the keys to my MY00 which I traded. Can't wait.

Car is 6month old Y plate with prodrive exhaust and 7k.
Cost just over £26k and a reasonable p/ex against my MY00.

Ah...that'll be why you got a good deal then

I'm dead glad I got mine, and I know its water under the bridge and all that, but I'm less happy with the deal I got by the day.

Never mind...I'll wave like mad when I see you, and perhaps we can stop and have a chat

CYA, Martin

Aaron,

Would have considered it but I had my car to get rid of and didnt fancy all the timewasters and testpilots.

Am I right that you swapped for an M3?

Enjoy! you won't regret it, I'm still grinning several months into mine. The only advice I'd give is to beware kerbs - my front lip is right royally shafted - the bloody front skirt is easy to forget when you're not used to it.....

have fun!

If the first 3 numbers are 136 and it is not a local by the rest of the reg, it is my old car as it went to Listers.

Rich,

Well done - Enjoy !!

Mines got Leda and that lowers the car slightly so have to be extra careful of the front. I now reverse into parking spaces just to be sure. And well out of the wat of other cars in the supermarket carpark.
Use Zymol regularly to keep the shine.

Steve.
