It's easy for people to spend others' money.

Keep looking Geoff, your car will turn up when it's time.

Definitely give Richard Grace a call, I know he has a great car coming up for sale as apart from anything else he has my old GranSport Coupé that I have part exchanged for a GranSport MCV. If it hadn't been for getting the MCV my GS Coupé would not have been sold as it was one of my favourite cars!

Congrats on the MCV buy. I have the the twin of your car but without red piping.

We will have to get them together one day. In fact the two MCVs, your Ghibli and my Bora (when it is finally finished! :frustrating: ) would make a great picture.

Well, looked at a Gransport this weekend.

Not for me, a bit disappointing really.

The engine felt torque light and did not sound that great to my ears, even with sport engaged. Gearbox also felt quite slow witted.

Did not like the side skirts either.

It did feel like it would handle nicely.

Anyway, this was very useful as it proves to me that I prefer the 3200. The 3200 just feels and looks, and sounds more special to me. When those turbos come on boost it makes you smile!

Surprising comments. Maybe car was not a good example?
With the CC box in sport mode I am surprised gearbox felt slow? If you havent driven one before it can take a bit of getting used to to get the best from it.
Noise again surprised me. Would have thought a GS with standard boxes (especially with valves open in sport)would be "noisier" than a 3200 with the same?
Might be worth looking at more examples before you commit.
Are you looking at a manual or auto 3200?

Backs up my feelings on it as well. It didn't look like it had been well cared for.
