Hi, I posted up a while back about Graypaul in Nottingham and someone said that there was going to be an MC12 in the showroom sometime before xmas this year.
Is this still a possibility at Graypaul or at any other dealership in the UK?
I would be very interested in seeing one in the flesh if one is going to be on our shores!
Can anyone shed any light??

Cheers for that!

Yeah, it was me who said that. Can you let me know what they tell you please? The man who was in the showroom told me they would have an MC12 around christmas time.

I really hope this is true but if it's not, I'll see one at MPH'04 show this Sunday.

But it's on the list on their website! Are there any more cars that they lied about? Here's the list... www.mphshow.co.uk/html/car_list.htm

Cool!
Was going to call in today but the public transport of Nottingham is so truly abysmal that I didn't have time!!

Nope, just got back....they weren't there today either. Bit of a con. Still, some good other 'stuff'

Wow! How dissapointing! Thanks for telling me at least. The Enzo was there though, wasn't it?

Enzo was there as part of the Gumball stand.

It was an OK show, but a lot of top cars were missing, that SHOULD have been there.

I went along not really knowing what to expect, but now i know all these top cars should have been there i'm rather disappointed.

Oh well, lots of tasty girls walking around so it wasn't all bad

Guess that pretty much covers it then!
Might pop round to the Porsche dealer round the corner as well!

I hate to resurrect dead threads, but is there any news on the MC12?

Yes, it was at Graypaul for the big opening night but I don't think its there any longer!
They do have a rather nice Enzo though!
