Obviously a great spec and well known car, Insurance paid out £18K for N3 which was a shed compared to that.

Looks sweet..... Is it an appreciating Classic or money pit? ......... Over £60k in receipts suggests pretty high maintenance.

Could do with a spare, and now that I have this cash burning a hole in my pocket after the sale of TT, it would make sense rather than watch Verian frittering it away.

ps:- not sure if we have bought you a wedding present yet Scotty. :D

Sounds like his "Man maths" has been disabled.

I have an idea of what I spend on mine each year, but I made the mistake of actually adding it all up last year.... :shock: silly mistake, won't do that again!

Tut,

Thanks for linking the advert.

Man maths most definitely dis-engaged but I want and need the car to be on top form, so literally no expense spared when it comes to ensuring it works!

Unlike its predecessors, N3 has cost me a set of brake pads since I bought her.

Down to personal preferences... I know plenty who love the pale blue on performance cars - just not my cup of tea.
