loving the conversation this has sparked off again.
I recently got a new job and was given an option of a company car. I toyed with the idea but I opted for the cash instead as I really do absolutely love my 8.
Ian will note that I wasn't a big fan of the silver when i bought it off him after my blue 3.7 FL QS died - but it had so many options and over time, it grew on me more than i had anticipated and that grin that so many others mention getting, i can't seem to think i'll easily find that again in another car.
I've just past 90k and it's still such a joy to drive - may it continue for many more miles!
