Busby Posted December 12, 2009 Report Share Posted December 12, 2009 Great choice buddy. That blue is absolutely stunning and the extras you have specified will round it off perfectly. Are you going to leave all of the graphics on? Personally I like the stripe / chequered flag up the side but I'd be asking them not to worry about the "GT3 RS" logos. Really pleased for you mate, it's always nice when somebody gets something they have always wanted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woppum Posted December 12, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 12, 2009 Thanks Bubs. Still cant believe it, dosent feel real. Hopefully will when it arrive on my doorstep or when i spend that final payment I am getting it with graphics, but upon delivery will review and see if i want them off. Chances are ill get rid. Thnk the car will look much classier without. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonC Posted December 13, 2009 Report Share Posted December 13, 2009 Perfect colour and awesome spec. Lucky bastard! Roll on February, huh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotty Posted December 13, 2009 Report Share Posted December 13, 2009 I'm a bit biased on metallica blue but disregarding that I think it looks great. I hope in the flesh it doesn't come across like the standard Scooby. It's a great spec. Talk about having your cake and eating it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woppum Posted December 13, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2009 What will happen to the current hack, keep or sell ? The CSL will go. I want to see how i get on with the RS as my only car. If i have to buy another it will be something more economical than the CSL. Will be vey sad to see it go, its been such a trusty steed both on the road, on track and through about 14 countries! In a dream world id keep it. The RS will obviously be a better car, and ultimately tick more boxes - however there will still be some boxes the csl ticks it doesn’t. I plan to put it up for sale once ive taken delivery of the RS. If anyone want details just send a PM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

max_b Posted December 14, 2009 Report Share Posted December 14, 2009 And I thought you'd seen the light and were going Grey !! Excellent choice, bet you can't wait Any way of knowing what colours other owners are going to go for, so you know how 'rare' your Blue one is going to be?

Woppum Posted December 15, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 15, 2009 Hard to tell as I am getting the first UK car (at least at my dealership). No one is fully speccing until they get a build slot and only 3 have been currently alocated to the uk. From Pistonheads I know of a white and red car that has been specced. Tis all I know today. And yes cant wait!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andyuk911 Posted December 18, 2009 Report Share Posted December 18, 2009 Discussing the VAT situation, apparently I am able to pay £100k berfore the end of the year at current rate, then only pay the balance at the new rate upon delivery. Anyone else heard about this? £100k is apparently the cap. Will work this out monday and get the monies wired over by the end of the week. Great car Woppum, !! On the VAT front, it might be worth researching the rules... I thought, if they issued an invoice with 31st Dec 2009 date(thus 15% vat), that is the VAT applied .... It is not relevant when the money is paid ... so a bit of 'porky' going on there. You don't need to pay ANY money @ the 17.5% rate. Lots of deals will be done by business on 31st Dec 2009, but payment terms may be 90 or 120 days, BUT the VAT that will be applied will be 15% never 17.5%....

CarMad Posted December 19, 2009 Report Share Posted December 19, 2009 I read last week the rules were as Wupps mentioned with £100k being the limit so that everyone didn't take the pi$$. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woppum Posted December 20, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 20, 2009 got to look in to this. everyone i have spoken too has said 100k is the cap. also dont fancy giving the full shebang to opc before i get the car. i will look in to this.

Andyuk911 Posted December 20, 2009 Report Share Posted December 20, 2009 (edited) I agree, if the OPC or group go pop, you will loose your money, as simple as that .. I will have a read and see if I can confirm my understanding .. Worth checking the who owns the OPC ... as an example, Penske motorsport own a few Ferrari dealers ..and they have a $100million loan facility Edited December 20, 2009 by Andyuk911 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CarMad Posted December 20, 2009 Report Share Posted December 20, 2009 Read the same in the Sunday Times again today, that you can bill for up to £100k at the 15% VAT rate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

m4ttm4son Posted December 22, 2009 Report Share Posted December 22, 2009 Surely you can agree a final price inc. VAT with your dealer and let him worry about his VAT payments Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
