Red QP Exec GT

[Andyk]

Really do like red....I know not for everyone but this one looks a great buy....It was for sale a number of months ago private as I posted the advert up....It then reappeared at this dealer a few weeks ago at £20500.......they dropped it to £19500 and now its at £17990......If the car is OK this seems a very good price for a 2008 car with 66k on the clock and 8 service stamps....

the ZF 'box - for 18k - its a steal.
Phil ??

 

[Andyk]

[Was thinking that Rob. Love the duo select by without that clutch cost his looks a decent car.

If these cars keep dropping, I'll be back in one much quicker than expected

 

[daverichardson]

This one is a year younger than mine!
i was hoping for a bit more
Still if that is the market.................

 

[StuartW]

Indeed, the market is clearly missing something here - surely one of the best kept secrets?

 

[Contigo]

Yep this months modern classics has the QPV in their "V8 fight club" and give it glowing reviews. Much deserved too!

Quality magazine BTW!

 

[GeoffCapes]

I saw that Mag in Sainsburys the other day. Never seen it before.

Might have a read. Was in a rush before so never got to look properly.

 

[Andyk]

Says M5 as brilliant as ever but we find a better classic......Is that the QP then....

 

[Contigo]

No they chose something different. QP is second choice because leftfield and so beautiful. The other one is chosen for power, price and overall fun.

 

[Andyk]

Ummm....is that the AMG then...

 

[Contigo]

Yep AMG, an awesome car for £6-7k but still I'd rather have the M5 or QP mainly because I hate Taxi's!

 

[Andyk]

100% agree Phil.....Had an E39 M5 and it was a stunning piece of kit and although far quicker than a QP it's still the QP for that special feeling and looks...

If you parked an M5 in a busy car park nobody would notice it, just another BMW, everybody notices a Quattroporte, especially a red one

True enough but the AMG is sooo much for your money and very well made

I don't think there is a massive difference between the E39 M5 and QP. The E60 on the other hand is a big gulf!

You are right there Wack61 but sometimes its not just about people noticing your car but how that car makes you feel and I can honestly say the E39 was a great car and really did enjoying every drive....I have never bought a car because of what other may think.....but yes youa re right on the looks piece.

 

[Wack61]

On another forum a guy had a new M5 , it didn't make him feel that good , they were fixing it as much as he drove it.

I just had a look at the website of the red QP, it does look good but he has strange stock ,an i8 BMW for 117k down to a £600 fiesta
