Ordered.... 20 weeks and counting....

Post by Vibester »

I went into our local dealer today nice and early, 2.5 Hrs and a quite amazing test drive later I have placed an order. They cant get hold of any more until September which works out perfectly for me iro registration and finances.

I have to say, after driving the GT last july and then driving an R today, I was amazed at the difference between the 2. I was also surprised by the difference in the ACC settings and the effect on the ride. Overall it's like a wolf in sheep's clothing, quite happy to sit at 30mph in 6th gear and then still pull!

On the finance point, I am intrigued with what they offering as a PCP deal. I appreciate many would not want to detail openly on the forum, but I would really appreciate it if someone could send me an example so I can compare. It is on a 36 month basis, so any ideas would be fantastic!

Here's to a very long and hard wait! I am not sure I have the stamina.
