Mine is a late 54 plate and numered in the 400's.....I would have said about 500

Cheap ! mine was £10,495 a year ago

Well thats it, ive bitten the bullet and will hopefully be collecting the baby r saturday, many thanks to all for the advice!

rock on !
another man with style n taste !!

Well Done, £8k for an R is an absolute steal, even if I was desperate for cash there is no way I would sell mine for that amount even standard.

You will soon have spent another couple of thousand on it !!
