GrandTurismo - at the ‘shallower’ end of the market

Sadly not. I was booked to see a car at Nuvola this weekend but it sold on Friday. Therefore bowed under spousal pressure and picked up a Cayenne yesterday.

I feel a little soiled - and my beloved 159ti Sportswagon is looking embarrassed :frusty5: Be prepping that one for sale today.

Jokes aside it’s a lovely car but not where I thought I’d end up. I usually stick with cars about 18m so would expect to be back on the lookout then.

Do appreciate all the engagement though, and a little sad it’s ended up German correct choice for family motoring right now.

(does that sound alike I’m try to convince myself…?)

Oh dear. Life takes weird turns doesn't it.
I asked, because I plan to advertise mine soon. If I can bring myself to.
If I wasn't going abroad, I'd be keeping it. For ever.
£,low 20's. 80k Dark grey with maroon-ish leather, 4.2.
Four owners before me. Know them all. All have deep pockets
and this car has been used, but extremely well looked after.
I've spent a few thousand to bring the paint up to scratch
at the front and its been serviced annually, no matter the mileage;
to catch anything that's developing. Completely standard, apart
from straight through exhaust.
I'm planning on buying a yacht, circumnavigating, then using it
for a sailing charity for ex-service personnel and first responders
here in N.I. with PTSD etc. If my timetable slips a bit, as Covid has
caused it to do, our timings may match. Considering how good
the car is, I want it to go to an owner who will continue to look
after it. They won't have any bills, for a year or two.
Before this. I never thought that I could get so attached to a car.
But. Its not just a car, is it ;)
