Just picked her up today. 56 (07MY) plate 4.2 SC Vogue SE 38k miles.

Wanted a TDV8 for so long, but saw some sense and went for the better option

Exceeded my expectations in every way! Absolutely incredible machine. Sorry for the bad iPhone pic, but it's all I've had time to snap. Been wafting around in it all day, will upload more tomorrow.

I know the trip computer readings on these are to be taken with a grain of salt, but managed 24mpg on the way home sitting at 60 on the motorway

Got a couple things to do, like fix the VentureCam, scrub the leather, figure out the phone connectivity (If there is any? ), and most importantly ENJOY IT!

Glad to be part of the team officially.

Welcome and Enjoy every minute your behind the wheel

Welcome.

Congratulations and welcome to another Kent member.

This was the one that everybody felt was OTT on the price. I thought for such low miles and 1 owner it was probably a little high but, if I remember correctly, someone thought it should be no more than £12k If he could have bought me a car like yours for £12k, I'd have happily given him £2k commission.

Yours looks a lovely car so enjoy, whatever you paid. 2017 5.0 Autobiography Supercharged

Welcome...

The bluetooth, set to search in bluetooth on your phone, look for a LR product & then pair with it using the pairing code 2121 sir

Very simple

Congrats and many many safe miles in your FF

Hi great buy,
you can clean leather trim with a microfibre cloth, hot water and a bar of pears soap,which only costs around 50p.
Just lather up the microfibre and away you go then lightly rinse with another microfibre and clean warm water.
HTH.. no need to scrub

Thanks for the kind and helpful comments!

Really does feel strange looking out the front window and seeing it!

Hi,

Welcome to the SC club, they are awesome cars.

Peter

I'm not one to get a new car and NOT take some artsy shots with my DSLR, but I've just been so distracted by this car!
Not even had a chance to clean it properly yet.

I haven't managed to pull myself out of the thing, is this normal???

It's ridiculously quick for It's size and the fuel consumption isn't as bad as id imagined..Not often something really lives up to the hype.


Heres some rubbish iPhone pics until I get a chance to clean her:
