RT @osheautomotive: Every seat tells a story. Hand-stitched with precision and upholstered in the finest materials, your seats are designed…

Popped in to see my friends @EJChurchill If you haven’t spent a day here shooting clays, I highly recommend it. Lovely place, very well run and nice people!

In the 90’s I had a binder file on my desk with Choices 123 RVs for every Vauxhall model, term & mileage in it. I’d find RV, quote customer using Casio square zone calculator, hand write finance docs with biro and sign in carbon triplicate. Fax off to GMAC. Bit different now!
Take us back to the time when you could buy a Lotus Carlton using Vauxhall's Choices 1-2-3 finance scheme.

@hjwakerley @TedWelford They’re gone forever. But you can watch YouTube instead while you search the menus for your heated seats.

@Tim_Oldland I get the link and statement the F80 is making, linking it to the 499P But aesthetically its a challenging design to see beauty in & I know from hard experience that a big V12 powertrain is important to customers. Power alone doesn’t matter. Ultimately the market will decide!

@AutoBant Agree it would turn heads, even in a supercar saturated environment like Monaco or MCW. But I think I’d rather spend £3M with you on an older Ferrari though Oli if I’m honest. I get the F80link to race win at Le Mans, but I’d prefer any of the previous Big 5 Ferraris over this.

@AutoInfatuation Great car, massive spec and wonderful way to waft around. But £20k+ feels high for one with nearly 100k miles

@peter8171 Are they all sold? I’m hearing differently……the latest Ponzi scheme is that you have to buy an F80 if you want the next SP

@scampbird Oxfordshire must have the worst roads in the UK right now. They are in an appalling state of repair.

@ratrace86 I’d set myself a ceiling budget of £20k, but SB worth the extra outlay. Something Q car cool about it.

@harrym_vids Still processing it. What a game, my family all screaming at the TV for England in last 5 x mins. Really excited to see this young team coming on.
