The itch is becoming unbearable .....

Is this the one to buy for circa £120k budget ??

Love the MSO stuff - I've seen the car in the flesh (before it was for sale) and it really looked great, also know of the owner who is a real petrol head.

I can stretch the budget but before I know it I'm consdering 458s, 650s spiders etc etc.

A hell of a lot of car for the money, looks to be a great spec and with Iris 2 also.

If you know the background and history to the car as well then what are you waiting for????

Better be quick, OP. That surely won't stick around for long. Sensational for the money. Looks like Darth Vader's earth-bound transport!

Don't tell any dealers about it ;p

Great looking car and spec. 12c is definitely looking better with 'age'

Popped an offer in (decent one) but it had sold - privately hence why no longer on the site

To be fair, I knew about it being for sale (from the owner) for months - so i guess it's a case of ......you snooze you lose

On the positive side
1 Made the mental leap to buy one
2 Approval now in the bag from the Mrs biggrin
3 Built some rapport with the gentlemen dealer (AB)


Onwards and upwards

Ah that's a shame, but as you say, some positives.

Alastair is a good guy and has some fine cars come his way.

Done 300 miles in the first week of owning mine - despite the horrendous weather. Fantastic car. Addictive to drive.

Yep - Looks like the UK market is starting to wake up to the 12c and the "bargain used super car" it is

I know of three sellers who have managed to sell theirs 12cs in the past month....all three are moving into 675LTs.

I hope you do realise there are faster cars out there that have a 0-60 time of 2.5secs and similar lap times of a 918
