Definitely not cut out to be a contractor if you're having to save up for it.

Well, I'm technically out of work at the mo, having a week off between gigs. At my current day rate of £0/day I'm struggling to save as much as I would like, but it's good to have a dream.

I'm saving up for one of these.

Only 15k miles per year? Amateur.

You are dissing admin here...

That was covered earlier, 10 year old Golf diesel with 150K on the clock.

What happened to the discussion about the Tesla 3? This thread is about it, isn't it?

The reason why i asked why would anyone go from an SL to a 911 is because there is something nice about setting the car on to radar based auto cruise and sit back while having a back massage on the way home from work.

911 991 TTS is a very nice GT car - much quicker than SL, better handling due to 4WD, lots of meaningful handling tricks, lighter car, looks better, also it's 2+2.

Only negative is there is no metal roof cabrio, if they had that they'd be on a top seller, that said I might keep the SL too...

Pretty much why I've gone for a jaguar. I do a fair bit of mileage and it is mostly motorway.

SVR... looks good too

Yes but you're breaking the law, lucky you're not in the USA as you would have been beaten up and then shot by now

Who said anything about me breaking the law?

I was doing 200 mph in my helicopter whilst observing slowly moving ants on motorway doing mere 90 mph, life is good...

72mph is the goal for speed enforcement across the UK and its almost in their grasp. Soon it will be time to put our toys away because they don't need to waist time on old fashion cameras with flashes anymore because its insanely cheep to use average speed cameras on a 4g network apparently. I don't Have the 5.5 because after careful consideration I decided I was too likely to use it and the advances in the current SL make even the current 500 overkill. I like really the AMG's and at some point I will do something stupid and buy a 63 but at the moment the way AMG are treating their 450 engines the 63 could be gone before too long.

I'd love a Turbo S as much as you, but I'm not parting with £150k on a car that can only legally do 34% of its top speed. Granted, I wouldn't be done by a speed camera because I'd be out of frame but meh.
