I cant actually insure it until im 19...truth hurts doesnt it! I can insure it atm, but that means tying into a year at 800 quid more than it would be in 3 months time.

There will be pics of it all over here when i get it, so keep your eyes peeled - this one is gonna be a stunner!

Nice one Alex, sounds like the perfect spec, 16" RXii AND leather! must be very frustating for you not being able to drive it till august, but at least you'll have it for E38!
whats its fault history like? gearbox problems, pedal box done?

And it's red, the best colour, although silver ones are faster

Pedal box is done. So frustrating! Gearbox is sound as far as i know, but the clutch needs doing fairly soon

Nah red ones are faster....ill prove it
