Looks like the R is the better used buy, the S seems to have held its value better.

Looks good but power seems low for a tts kit. Wonder if it's an m112 kit

If i changed my mind & was looking to move on quickly, had spent a few quid getting it right & someone offered me enough to recoup & make a small profit then i'd do it.

As with most things, it's each to their own :bigblink:
Bought for £14,750

Sold for £15,120
Nice one DK. Always good to make a turn.

One of my colleagues has a Grey F-Type S (rag top) & no doubting they're an epic machine. Defo on my radar for when the M5 gets changed.

I didn't really make a turn as I spent £600 on wheel refurb and detail and paid two months of warranty premiums and one warranty claim with a £250 excess

But those are just running costs.

Running a 200mph 5.0 V10 is not free !

Was short but sweet. Was a great car in its own right, but sadly a little too close to my XF in terms of size and comfort for me as a weekend car
