how did you manage that Rob?


I got quoted about £18k for a pretty much standard one with 19s and xenons.

Thats very good going Rob. Unfortunately I can't (or more like don't want to) spend quite as much as that right now.

I'm eligible for Partners and thats still only 10% off list before VAT (or some I'm told) which would never bring the price down that much for me!

Partners discount for me was 8% on vxr range (although I got 10% 'staff' discount) and also £2250 FDA (finance deposit allowance)

Plus I ordered late January, and the base prices were increased by around £800 in February

If youtake GMAC finance, they pay £2250 towards your deposit. Basically knocking it off the car price

Well, Flux were useless but Greenlight have beaten everyone. £1092 with a lower excess than Churchill and offer on-demand track day cover at £50 per day no questions asked. Winner

Gonna go up to Astons on Saturday to look at the second hand 57 plate I posted earlier

We are switching over to Greenlight or HIC for the track day cover. Deffo worth it.

Definately. The guy said only costs £50 and will double the excess for the day, but thats invaluable if the worst happens.

UK tracks only though, and doesn't include Castle Combe.
