Yup.

OPC car.

Four years of warranty left.

28k miles.

£46k.



Right up my OXO tower, so to speak. Just making sure that it hasn't been Lonman's shopping car.

Looks lovely Soovy, but have you discounted Matt's?

It's had a fortune spent on it, and is the most sorted (and the best) road car I've ever driven. I don't say that lightly. Wouldn't want you to miss out.


ETA: Enjoy the test drive.







Sorry Nerv, I know I promised no more posts about your car.

Have a look on the log book at the opc and find out who the previous owners were. then post on here, you may well find that someone knows the car. i looked at a red one at an opc around 3 yrs ago, could well be that the person who bought it then has sold it back to them.

feel free to pm me when you find out the previous owners if you like

I can sort that, and I'm fairly confident I can beat the OPC's finance package.

ETA: Probably looking at 1.5% over base, agreed balloon value, all sorts of options open to a car like that.
