    Brand new blown engine

    I would have thought they would have to disclose its had a new engine and pre owned that must have an effect on the price also if your not set on a particular spec you could get one quite quickly off the system so at a guess I would think it should be a few grand cheaper than new.

    Brand new blown engine

    They told me they would replace the engine in the delership then put it on there forecourt for sale should be a cheap car I would have thought. We did think of cancelling our order and buying it when it is fixed. As it will still be in our name should still be a one owner car. We would need to...

There's no question about waiting for a new one for me, it has to be...

After all it takes 36 hours to build the car from new. They build around 350 cars a day I'm told so...
