Another interesting car in today at work.. 10 Plate Nissan GTR
Absolutely savage.. what a fantastic machine!! The owner traded it in for a run of the mill A3 Quattro after apparently nearly killing himself and his mother in it! 
I want one - i need one - Who wants to buy a kidney and a left testicle??

How much did you give him?
Hopefully not much if he's making silly decisions like that.

I have no idea what we gave him - knowing sales he got probably got shafted.....
Daft decision imo - however after the drive in it today i can see where he's comming from

Unreal on the road, fast off the line - happily lighting up all 4 wheels in 1st and 2nd - fast round the bends also and the back does like to get out of shape - i'd be dead in a week if i owned one, but it would be one hell of a week!!
Andy - I work for an audi main dealer as a technician

A friend of mine has one and is looking to chop it in for a LR Evoque...says the power is unuseable most of the time on UK roads.

I remember over a year a go now going with my old boss shopping for an m3. he looked round a brand new one which was 5 days old but had been returned. the driver lost 8k selling it back to them after nearly hitting a tree and then deciding to downgrade.

one of our directors has one in white
He recently did the V200 event and beat nearly everything that turned up
His is around 750 BHP with remap, decat, sports exhaust etc
He chopped his lambo in for it
from what I here they are a cracking car but have some trouble with them
Dealer around our way cant keep up with demand
