There was one for sale earlier in the year with the number plate FAT11E, That could've taken the title but this is maybe better depending on how you feel a modding a 'plus'.

Tried to call the guy to view, but the number goes through to QST , so its a bit misleading. Unless its on SOR with them even then i would have thought it would have still be marked as a trade add .

What are your thoughts on price , even though its low millage is it worth it bearing in mind there is no mention of warranty ?

Any one know if they are open tomorrow.

Seems a bit pointless to put an add up last thing friday when no one can get hold of you till monday. Or perhaps there is method behind the madness !

Going to be a long wait till monday then !

Worth the money if it wasnt so heavily tuned (imho). This wouldve been a great one to lock up and keep for special (possible corporate) occasions but its been dabbled with now...

who am I kidding its totally worth the money. I just think it'd wouldve been more of a catch if it was all standard.

surely, it's got to be virtually "as new".
its had some money spent on it, and been kept for special occasions at average of only 3k per year.
i'd buy it..!
i reckon there'll be a queue of people on monday morning.............

We will see i have mailed them and left a voicemail , can't help thinking there is a catch some were, who puts a car up on a friday last thing knowing there would be no way of contacting the seller or the person selling the car until the monday. Seems a bit strange.
