It is annoying hearing people banging on about them, yeah they're cool but not exceptional.
I would really like one tho

Well i looked at the 106 tonight, turned out it wasnt as clean as it seemed!
Exhaust was blowing(needed new one, he admitted after i pointed it out, when originally he said nothing wrong with car!!) err had scratches on boot, mirror and had a tiny ding in rear quarter. Rocker gasket was leaking, err few other little bits, and he wouldnt budge on price, so i thought feck it, reckon it was only worth 4200 maybe 4500 absolute max, so have left it for now, gonna ring some more tomorrow.

Take your time Brody, I looked at 4-5 before I found a decent one. A lot are not always what they seem

Cheers for the advice Nik, a few years ago i would have been tempted to jump straight in with both feet the first one i saw, but i have kind of learned my lesson so am gonna wait for a decent one.
Just rang a garage up about one they have, its diablo red 52k (no leather unfortunately) sounds ok though, well have full valet years ticket, warrenty and is up for 4495. Hoping my mate can take me to look at it this afternoon?
