They're a fantastic car Gaz, my mate has one and I've borrowed it a few times (he's not a car bloke).

 

Very, very comfy on long journeys, the power delivery is just a wall of torque, but it does it so effortlessly it's deceiving how quick the thing is. My mates one was around 450bhp but my BPU supra felt a fair bit quicker.

 

The only downside is the weight and handling. The handling isn't bad for a big benz, but you can feel the weight when pushing it into corners.

 

Can't beleive that was less than £10k, I thought they were a lot more than that, my mate would be gutted, he paid over £40k for his a few years ago :D

 

Edit - agh, thats a CL, my mates is an SL conv.
