Also, check the build no. plate fixed to the console, if it starts with a P, it is an ex press test car which would have had a fair work out. Otherwise it has a few km's for an 18 month old car which might be the reason of the cheaper price.

Mine is P0007, Oct build (makes it a MkII).←The dodgy clutch was relating to a circlip or something that was failing following the initial release of the car and they suspended production until they had it sorted. All the initial build cars should have had a new clutch setup in by now so it shouldn't be an issue.Don't know too much more about the press cars apart from the fact it had a prefix of P to the build no. Glenn should know, he works at a delearship. It may very well be fine, but you might also find a picture of it sideways in a wheels magazine or being flogged down the quarter mile, but there again, probabally no different to what some of the guy's on here do.

Guest newl Guests Posted 05/07/06 12:08 AM Share Posted 05/07/06 12:08 AM Okay, thanks for the extended info there guys. Learned something new today.With regards to it getting flogged, better that than own a wimpy lemon because she really does feel strong.
