Just got an SIII...

#1

Post by peterg1955 »

Hello all, after years of admiring the Coupe (first drove a friend's one back in about 1999) my divorce has now meant I don't need a boring turbo diesel minicab-like automatic tintop so I have just acquired a 2007 red SIII.

It's done 102k but has been well maintained and actually in better condition than a few I looked at with a lot fewer miles, ironically I was after a light blue one as I have only had black, dark blue or silver cars in the last 20 years (apart from the yellow Westfield and the orange single seater racecar) but this red one came up and as they look a bit like a squashed up Ferrari 575 it does suit the car so I bought it (340 mile round trip....) and have no regrets at all.
