Am considering buying one of these monsters. I have found two for sale, one blue ( looks nice ) on here and a black one at caterham. Anyone know of any others ? Cheers

Why get an R500 (that will cost £££&#163wink esp when you have to 'refresh' the engine every other 5,000miles.

Get an R400 instead. Almost as quick. MUCH cheaper to run. (or CSR 200?)

Poopoo thanks for reminding me that mine'll need a "refresh" soon wink Aside from the frequent refreshes Poopoo, why are they more expensive to run?

But why not buy an R400? You've just missed a minter than mint one with 2500 on the clock - gone to a serial collector hehe Of course we're talking the K Series cars here - you'll have to stump up over £30k for the Duratec cars

So, aside from the most expensive element to do with an R500...

...From what I can see from his webphotos (Cancun looked great by the way, Poopoo) Poopoo doesn't appear to have owned an R500....I want to see just what he bases his knowledge on. Actual it's a shame he didn't post earlier than today, I was on the pitwall with Stewart W from Minister at Donington yesterday and could have saved myself a lot of bother by asking him to book my car in there and then for its monthly refresh....
