I left a large deposit as i could not withdraw the cash from the bank today picking it up on tuesday or wednesday.
viewed the car today and took it a test drive and its going to take a while to get used to compared to the 172 cup.
guy showed me the purchace price from 4-5 years ago and it was £22000 !! and it has only had 2 owners me being the 3rd.
i want to find some nice (bbs ch-r) or csl wheels for it any advice ? i would prefer them to be staggered fitment.
anyone had one and what are they like to live with ?

got it for less than the asking price too
to be honest the guy was in his late 40's living in a huge house with two new mercs in his driveway. just think he wanted to get rid of it quick to make space on his drive.

When brand new the car was 32K ie from the showroom
When this bloke bought it from the first owner 4-5 years ago he paid 22k.
Sorry Ben.

Was test driving with the owner so never really planted my foot on the loud pedal, first impressions are it has a lot of low down grunt and is very comfortable. Pic it up this week will give a verdict and post pictures after a good clean.
