Thanks riano, that is good to know. I will have a play and see if I can scare myself!

Oh yes, rotors not calipers, silly me. Does anybody have an idea on the costs of pads and rotors? I had not really considered replacing a caliper, that would be pretty unlucky on a car less than 10yo I would have thought but it would be scary bill.

14k, just for calipers!? :eek: Agreed that they look cool but thats mental. I guess the aftermarket for them is tiny although I thought Brembo were a big player, do they sell into the aftermarket does anyone know?

great post thanks riano, love to see some pics too :)

Reminds me of the Sportsman's Double joke: I met an older woman at a bar last night. She looked pretty good for a 60-year-old. In fact, she wasn't too bad at all, and I found myself thinking she probably had a really hot daughter. We drank a couple of beers, and she asked if I'd ever had a...

Robert looks scared of what she may do to him when they are finished.

I have considered McLarens but the maintenance and servicing scare me, not helped by living in North Wales. As someone else commented, warranty costs are ridiculous. Not sure I could be content with ownership knowing the risks. Oddly, I have Lotus dealer 2 miles from home and have thought...

I would be interested to hear how you find the GTS nyssa if you dont mind posting back. Your comments on the GTR being a touch hardcore is something I have been pondering after watching countless YouTube clips. The GTC is supposed to be the softer version retaining the 4 wheel steering but...

Thanks for the info Bpbby Dazzler, you have answered all my questions really. Reliability is a concern but it seems they are pretty solid, there isn't much on the net about issues. One owner reported a leaky gearbox and MB wanted £16k to fit a replacement transaxle but that could be sorted at an...

Thanks for the replies. The SLS is a fantastic looking car but I don’t think I would stretch for it, the last generation gearbox and the doors which I would struggle to live with, and that require maintenance, are enough to kill it for me. The big 6.2 would be epic as is the noise but that’s...

Hello forum, Its been a few years since I have posted but the place is much as I remember i;, friendly, knowledgable and welcoming. My time has finally come and later this year I will be buying a car for me, one that can be as compromised as I like and as fast and fun as I can find. For a long...

looks great, are the alloys fitted an option or different to those offered on the 507 sedan?

Not a bad deal Gerry, does she have many options?

Ah thats easy enough, so any deal that states business users just add VAT and your eligible. Thanks, good to know.

^^ wonder if the lease deal on that work out to be more than the offers on new cars? That is assuming you would be wanting to lease in the first place.
