Not such good news as I've now purchased it ( I bloody hope your not right ). We have done a few miles today and it drives lovely very pleased with the way it goes and sounds. Nearly as smooth as the 8 !

Once I tried to start it and the starter motor seemed to spin but didnt turn the engine. Tried again and it was fine. Hopefully the solenoid is sticky as it hasn't been used much in the last few years.
