He already said I think, was close to 400k. It is a big comfortable car you could even live in, worth every penny.
That's new price isn't it? None of my business, but judging by the fact the cars traded were around £200k combined, I'd say between £250-£300k?He already said I think, was close to 400k. It is a big comfortable car you could even live in, worth every penny.
Indeed. The Spirit of Ecstasy also helps - it sits probably 6" away from the front of the car, so it gives you a very pronounced sense of where the front is without having to use the parking sensors or the cameras.

It was relatively close to a swap, and factoring in the reduced cost of parking, road tax, warranty, servicing and insurance for the one car versus the two, it represents a bit of a cost saving compared to having the Ghost and the Aston!
hahaha... man love it... man logic it's what I'd say to the wife as well lol
But yeah it will be... it's kinda like the best of both worlds in one package. a lot of coin... they hold their prices well long term? Might have a look at Autotrader hahaha... wondering what a 2004 jobbie goes for now.

Absolutely love it & the colour/spec is perfect; exactly as I'd order when my Doge moons. Congrats OP!
Nothing beats a long car.

Good Phantoms hold their values well, and by good I mean nice specification and colours, low mileage, excellent condition and a fully serviced and in-network car. There are just not very many of these about.hahaha... man love it... man logic it's what I'd say to the wife as well lol

It would certainly be a different sight for sure, suspect after a track day he would be needing new disc and pads all round in a car that heavy, but at least 4 people could go round in comfort.
lmao !
well with the length of it, he'd have the track to him self!
Oh do you have a Navara? You haven't mentioned it before. Any good?
Yeah I tend to keep quiet about it as it gets under people's skin for some reason.

This is either a woosh or an excellent comment.

We love you man. I hope yours never folds in half like the one I saw on the side of the M1 a few months back.
It was OK on the last chassis inspection but is probably only a matter of time.
Nah, just a bit of fun poking mate, you're definitely one of the better ones on here <3
Some people's posts have an underlying or direct element of spitefulness definitely not just poking fun. That is also out of 70+ posts in that time - surprise I mention a vehicle I drive a lot a fair bit of the time... several of those aren't even about my pickup such as the Citroen Berlingo thread.
Additionally where you highlighted "The Navara isn't the only thing I drive or" was in response to Fox's incorrect assumption in reading https://forums.overclockers.co.uk/posts/35352976 as the weekend duty manager for the van driving side at work I have some familiarity with reversing/parking vehicles of that kind of length - it wasn't even a reference to my pickup.
(And I will freely admit I'm not overly confident in my ability to park a vehicle that size).

Mate you don't need to defend yourself, it's literally just a bit of fun. Tell anyone who takes this seriously to take a long walk off a short cliff

After awhile it gets a bit old and some of the responses (not just here) definitely aren't in the spirit of poking fun.
