Nice write up :D

You obviously know what you are looking for in your car.

I also noticed how noisy they are on startup. When we went for the first test drive, as soon as it started up, it was my first impression. I was lucky with the one I got that everything had just been serviced, and cambelts replaced. In fact, I was quite wary because of it - why would anyone spend that sort of money, with high end workshops, when nek minit they are selling it?
Did someone find a problem with the car? It doesn't appear so though as I've been driving it for a few months and it appears fine. He told me they were selling it now because they are to old to use their mountain bikes - and the F2 was to be their bike transport. The his and hers cars left in the garage were both Porsches, hers immaculate and his a very high value older one that was also immaculate.

Anyway, after having said how much I like my F2, I hope it starts this morning when I go to work! I've spent my weekend driving the F1, and enjoying it, as the dog has come around with me/us - I love the dog, but she's not destroying those lovely leather seats! The F2 is more my weekday car.
Hi, thank you.
I'm old (well ish lol) and have a lifetime around cars and trucks, so you sort of get to know. If I could find a car from a home where they have luxury cars tucked away, then generally you know it's well cared for and a good one.
The noisy start up from cold was a little concerning at first, but I would rather that, than go to one for a test drive that was already warmed up, that's normally an alarm for me on any car, once warm they sound okay.
We no longer have a dog but she was always in the back of the X3, I wasn't going to have my seats wrecked either.
The search continues, I am looking at one on Saturday (if it's still available) but being over 130 miles away I have made sure it has everything in order before I go, servicing, tyres etc etc. Fingers crossed, the only downside is the mileage at 130k, it must be due a steering rack by now unless it's been changed. We will see what it drives like.
Thanks for the reply.
