332 of 999

Post by the6 » Tue Oct 19, 2010 7:51 pm

Lads, what can I say, the drive home was something unforgetable.
The cars performance is astounding, the torque curve smooth and true, THE SOUND! Jesus, I am so pleased I bought this car, the "black interior" is in fact natural and so clean and fresh it smells like clarks shoe shops (kids for school) ;)


Words can't explain the zorsts, but a video might, Im off to get some noise...

Nup. Not jealous, not jealous at all. Thanks for taking a photo of the steering wheel, ya prick, it looks fresher than a virgin's daughter! Makes my wheel look like the old part of a saddle.

Yeah, I really like the look of that. One thing I've always thought about the Plus though, is that the /999 badge is just awful, a real stick on afterthought. Surely they could have done better with that?

that's a perfect motor. as new condition, but better than new with the mtm work.

worth a lot more than the asking price, imho.

an extreme rarity - i knew it would sell quickly, and i'm glad it went to a forum member.

PS - was the reg. plate included as well ??

Very kind fo you to say so Batty, thank you. I am seriously pleased with it, I can't tell you. What I can't belive is the new car smell and fell, its tighter than a mouses ear on the road, although DRC is working as it should, feels fantastic!

As for the plate, I reckon I could clear half the mortgage with it! So on that note sadly the vendor (private sale) declined to leave it on the car.

Im going to get that tunnel run done you know, first time today when I went through and boosted, I actually braked with suprise almost immediately, It actually screamed at me, never heard anything like it, AMAZING.. Sounds like a standard cat back MIlle till you get to 3200 RPM, then the valves kick in, loving it.
