you'll have to insure it as well, though, and update the MOT before driving if you leave it a while

you could get a tax refund though

Have u ever driven 1? if nt u should ask 4 a shot, then ull no if its worth swapping ur CL for the GT.

R they in similar condition? ie bodywork & milage?

I know what I'd do! :D

Take the GT out, see what you think!

12k is nothing, seriously.

Take it out for a test drive, you've nothing to lose, and you'll probably want it afterwards!

yeah like Alex (Krupa) said 12k is nothing if you can afford the insurance, get the GT.

The engines can take a beating (as my engine has found out). Just need to give it a good servicing.

If you regret it, i'll eat my hat

CL's are about group 5/6 I think. The GT is group 8. The GT's MPG is very good if set up nicely.

you will hardly feel the impact of a couple of insurance groups, go for it. no actually get a g40 :lol:
