You're tempted at £5k? You'd be the coolest 18 year old out there if you did buy it, to be fair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh no, I was tempted, before I took a closer look and I didn't feel like arguing with a dealer who thinks he's the shit most likely. And it is a long way from me Well ironically I had the most powerful car in the 6th form car park in the form of a Rover 220GSi twin cam, which I always thought was quite a nice claim, although me being me I kept it quite quiet. Indeed I was always quite careful with powerful cars, @Skizzer was shocked to hear of my restraint when he reviewed the car. I would probably be the coolest 18 year old in my own romanticised mind tho 🤣 Most people of my generation treat their cars as appliances and would just get something new with toys on finance, tho a large portion of them get sentimental and give them names, odd how that works Dick Longbridge 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I found the 3.6 in my old one a bit underwhelming and quality wasn't great. I had to take the binnacle out the dash and there was just huge lump of pig iron in there for some reason I've never worked out. They attract some "interesting" characters.
