Ah, would have loved to come and watch (i.e. blag p-rides ;) ) but wife's birthday so unlikely to get away with that one. Brings back great memories from last year. Have fun all and drive safe. Jon

Thanks for posting those up, looks a great day. Lovely variety of cars there.

Personal lease £618/month with 3x£618 deposit = £16686 over 2 years. How much are these likely to depreciate in that time if you bought a new one? Low mileage 2010 cars seem to be < £40k on PH. I expect this has been discussed a few times :)

Nicely excessive. Compared to another thread where I'm asking the cheapest Merc v8 under 10 years old, call this the one to ask the cheapest Merc v8 under 6 years old :)

Yep, I watched the auction end too. Is this the chepeast shape to get a <= 10-yr old v8 merc?

2d to go - well, we'll see what it's worth then.

Thanks. Mileage would worry me on that one. Ian, yes, it's been for sale for a while so could probably haggle. Wife would never forgive me though!

17 sounds lower than I'd want. Low-mid 20s I could deal with. When were 4matics from? Sorry, I know nothing about MLs really. I walk past one each day on the way to the station (a 270 iirc) and they seem to fit the bill of high up and not too big (for wife) and with a V8 rumble (for me :) )

2002 MERCEDES-BENZ ML500 Tip v8 warbling, wafty, family transport goodness or a likely complete money pit that's only held together by it's paint and dodgy coloured leather? (I almost actually quite like the colour combo!) *Not that I'm looking to buy something until the end of the year, but...

Nice. I think that'd be just about my perfect car at the moment.

Cool - I'm going to keep reminding myself of this thread when my co. car lease runs out at the end of the year.

Hiya, I've just put these up there. May be of interest. One Falken Falken 452 18" 225/40R18 92Y tyre | eBay Two slightly worn Pirellis but maybe of use to someone. Pair of Pirelli P Zero Rosso 18" 225/40R18 92Y part worn tyres - bargain! | eBay Cheers, Jon

Tempted to join the fun if there's room somewhere for me to come along as a passenger. Probably not worth it in my Fiesta (or as per the Goodwood trackday thread, maybe I could see if an i10 can hit 100!)

Tempting. What could possibly go wrong? :)

Thanks to Simon M for the PM reminder. Unfortunately I won't be able to make it in 2012, due to a lack of a track car and also the date being my wife's birthday. Hey - unless I send her someone for some pampering... and take her Hyundai i10 onto the track at Goodwood :D I'll echo Will's...
