Hi everyone,I havnt had a scooby in about 6yrs now,but my prev were,98 turbo,P1 new,and a wr1 new.Current drive supercharged jag.My biggest regret was selling my P1.Wr1 wasnt a patch on it....Anyway I called into local dealership to see salesman friend....ended up testing a sexy little 61 plate cs400 with 20odd miles on it......omfg...what a car,they gave me the keys and let me loose in it,...I felt immediately at home.......im real close to sealing the deal...wishme luck

ahh have they put that right then,
i looked at one when they were first released and was told it only had 12 months warranty and also told that again at the autosport show in january.
not a great fan of the hatch but the cosworth looked great in the flesh.
the seat are lovely.
whats it drive like compared to the older models??
