Hi all,
This is my first post on here.
I yesterday put a deposit down on this 2013 Litchfield Stage 2 GTR with 31k on the clock
Those of you that keep a keen eye on Auto Trader may have seen this pop up for sale at a BMW dealership in Swansea.
After a little negotiation we struck a deal that included 18 months dealer warranty for piece of mind. Itās going in to have the front bumper sprayed to clear stone chips & the wheels refurbished. It will also be serviced, rear brakes done & will have 12 months MOT on it. Iāve not seen or driven the thing & it will be delivered in January. Obviously buying blind I have the option to reject it if itās not right, but Iām hoping that wonāt be the case.
First plans are a full stage 2 detail & ceramic coat. May go front end ppf but Iāll discuss that with the detailer in the new year. Lucky enough to have Freshlayers right on my doorstep & theyāll look after me.
A little background on how I got to this car, which has always been a bucket list car of mine to have. My other half booked me on track day to drive one a couple of years back & I think I was always going to end up with one.
A month ago I sold my R53 track car that Iāve built over the past 12 years
This car has seen multiple tracks around the UK & has also been the cover car for Performance Mini & a promo car for BC Racing.
On Sunday the next car to leave the house was my EST tuned A45 AMG
Owned this since December 2016 at which point I also set up the A45 AMG Owners Club which is doing pretty well with its own forum (
www.a45club.co.uk), Facebook page & Instagram that amazingly has 35k followers. Thankfully with admins Iām able to let them run themselves.
Last time I owned a Jap car was a 1995 Scooby that I owned from 2000 to 2006. I always remember the Jap community being a great bunch & still have many great friends from way back then.
Looking forward to being part of the GTR community, getting to some meets etc... when the country gets back to some sense of normality.
