Just watched my Exige driving away. :(

Good news is that, if the planets align, some Chapman DNA should be arriving soon in the form of an R500. :mrgreen:

Aye, car staying in Scotland and the buyer is a good bloke.

Hopefully he'll make himself known and join in.

I didn't think your car would take long to shift.

It's great when you can move in quickly. Just hope you don't have to wait too long for the R500.

My mate who bought your Exige was telling me you were getting a R500 :wink:

I didn't realise he was a mate Mike.

I think he is pleased with the car and with the deal.

I hope he enjoys it.
