- Suspension on softest setting is still very firm.
- Purchase price. I think dealers are no longer taking orders. You go on a cancelled orders list and private sales are priced higher than new.
Pros:
- Its an RS. Enough said.
Edit: I went from a 305rwkw FG XR6T to the RS. I don't miss the XR6T !

I haven't actually followed up with insurance. Im post 30 with only claims against criminal damage against my car, so shouldn't be too bad.
Didn't realise there is no spare - this is a small dilemma. I guess tyre choice will matter. Do you have run flats?
cheapest i have seen is around 52k. I was thinking of waiting til June sales - but also understand stock might be limited as there is only so many orders per year. Just hope prices have dropped by say end of July.
