So back story, I've owned a Audi A6 LeMans for nearly 10 years now, I only really needed it as a run around as I was spending around 10 months of the year abroad.... Anyways over the past 12 months I find myself spending more times at home in the UK, but still only using the car sociably and I guess I was now wanting a car that put a smile on my face and that I enjoyed driving.
Cars I looked at:
Cars I looked at:
- Nissan GT-R - Too Small, every time I floored it I smacked the back of my head off the roof haha
- Audi RS6+ - Personally a dream car and I very nearly pulled the trigger on one last year, but I convinced myself that there was better value to be had elsewhere for half the cost.
- E63 (64 plate) - Now I liked this car, was way more affordable than the RS6+ but it just (for whatever reason) failed to put a smile on my face.
- C63 Edition 507 (64 Plate) - Initially I'd shunned the W204 C63's I was more in favor of going down the Turbo route, but when I was looking at the E63 the garage happened to have a Polar white 507 coupe in and he twisted my arm to take it out, well needless to say I'm glad I did, got back to the garage (Europa Prestige) and thrashed out a deal and managed to knock 5k off the car if I went for a cash deal, they also threw in the MOT, 12 months road Tax, 3 years GAP and will cover the next service, so that was that, the car has just under 19,000 on the clock, 1 owner, full Merc service history with 7 months warranty remaining, the down side, I flew out the country before I could pick it up so it's sitting there waiting for me to return on May 11th, needless to say I'll be like a kid at Christmas on my flight home!
