Hi Paul,
Did you buy this car from MMC ? From what I can make of your registration I'm pretty sure it is my mates old 111R. The black rear diffuser is also a giveaway.
If so then it's a good 'un, he owned it from new and it lived in his garage under a dust cover most of the time and only ever went out when the sun was shining. It's also never been tracked. I think it did hit the rev limiter once but that was when I was driving it
He had a bit hassle with blistering paint that never got round to being resolved so you might want to have a look at that whilst it's still covered by the warranty.
Hope you have lots of fun with it.
Neil
I did indeed Neil - well spotted!! Thanks a lot for the note - good to know where it has come from! Do you know where in particular on the car he was worried about the paint and I'll keep an eye on it?
Thanks again,
Paul

You will when you've done that run often enough!
