Does seem great value. Not sure if the xdrives are more expensive though, as I haven't been looking at the RWD model.

Many Things.

Sorry, I just noticed who was selling it.

One of our employees bought a C30 Volvo from him around September. It stopped the night he collected it and JD recovered it and supposedly fixed it. Within a few days it happened again. JD took it back again and the young guy told him to keep it until it was sorted.

He got it back a few days later and on the way to Belfast the engine seized. The young guy rang him and Mr JD was very nasty indeed. JD told him to arrange his own recovery truck to get it to the garage and that he would not be recovering it, nor would he be paying for it.

It also happened to be the 14th day from the finance agreement was signed, so he wanted to reject it (naturally in my opinion) and luckily we managed to get it back to him and had pictures and proof that it was returned in time. He tried to argue it wasn't, got very nasty again when the young guy had proof in the form of pictures and a video and also a written statement from the recovery truck driver. It took nearly 2 months to sort it all out.

Not the best behavior in my opinion.

Spotted 2 Landcruiser Amazons on the a1 today and I presume they are for sale but can’t see any ads. Pretty rare

I didn't realise you could have a 991 GT3 for under £100k!

Vauxhall gts Vxr8 number 5 2014
Supercharged
800.1 bhp
644.3 at the wheel
Lk14 Omv
This is a well looked after car from new
The first owner had factory fitted spare wheel as they do not Come with one

Walkinshaw stage two plus upgrade.
St st headers.
3 inch full Harrop bi modul st st exhaust.
Intercooler reservoir.
And finished off by Carl and sola
Keeping the private plate but can come to some deal with it

The car has clear protected wrap on the bonnet wings and bumper

Vauxhall VXR8 GTS No.5 with the supercharged LSA engine from factory.
Whilst I’ve not had the car long, I’ve known it since it was new, with two fastidious previous owners, I count as friends. The car is well known in HSV and VXR8 circles, as are all the car’s owners.
The first owner spec’d the car with the rare spare wheel option – most have tyre sealant. He was a very good client of Walkinshaw Performance, a closely associated company to HSV who built the cars for Vauxhall, in Australia He asked WP to upgrade the engine to Stage 2 with cam, remap, intercooler reservoir and full 3” stainless steel bimodal exhaust from headers to outlets.
The car was also treated to PPF protection to the bonnet, bumper and wings to stop annoying stone chips.
The second owner added the black stripes and roof. Like the first owner, he only used the car occasionally and in good weather too, which is why it has only covered ……….37250 Miles.
The car has recently been retuned by Luis Sola, arguably the best LS and LSA tuner in Australia, ably assisted by Carl Herkes, a specialist with these engines. This resulted in the car being recorded at 800.1bhp / 644.3rwhp on Surrey Rolling Road’s dyno (printout’s supplied).
Soon after I bought the car from the second owner, I was alerted to another vehicle being offered for sale, which I have been trying to buy for a few years (isn’t that always the way?) so sadly this one has to go.
The private plate is included in the sale – the car LK14 OMV.
The car has never been subject to any damage. I’m more than happy to answer questions regarding the car – which is immediately available for viewings in Kent.

I have a full set of breaks front and rear
And the car cover to
And the standard bonnet

£45k

Bargain!



Much prefer the M4 tbh.


I’ve no doubt the M4 is a better all round car but I’ve had it 3 1/2 years and for the last 10 at least I’ve wanted a V8, just not come across anything I actually wanted to buy, the downside to the Mustang would be the ***** interior, it shares the sync 3 and some switchgear from my van, the Bullitt certainly gives me the ‘fizz’ though!

Welcome to take a gander at mine anytime you want, couple of additional tweaks to the Bullitt interior like Recaros, brushed stainless and stitching make it stand out a bit.

Plus it likes to spin the rear tyres, so there’s that 😁
