Saw the worlds best spot today, shame my bloody phone is in for repairs!

F40 in CREWE!! Eyedot your a brave man! P.S. Nice T-shirt dude!

Was in Grainger Games buying P4G and heard the demon drive by, saw the spoiler, headed outside with a guy I know, saw the car drive to a carpark and just HAD to see it closer...Eyedot stepped out, first time I've met another OCUKer like that.

Also, is that your daily drive?

You sir, are my hero! I would love to have an F40 as a daily! Mind if I ask how much it cost and it's running costs?

P.S. If your looking at an Arnage, what the hell is your job? O.o

Servicing isnt too bad as its basically a 2.9l v8 with some whopping turbos on top, the issue is getting spare parts if they're ever needed.

£1400 for a clutch, fitted for example.. but my mechanic had to get the last clutch available in the world (so we bought it just to have a spare) ditto turbos etc.

Job, I'm mostly retired however my company hosts these forums (and a few others) :)

So your stuffed if you burn your spare clutch? And you really don't look old enough to be retired! :eek:
