I have spent £8333. 96 on it but what a fantastic car and a fantastic experience to drive!
Finally, we all have that feeling when its time to let a car go, you've had an immense amount of fun and smiles, I would like to see it go to another likeminded soul who can appreciate it and use it daily like I have. Come and take a look, its a lovely car, you won't be disappointed.
