That Aurora car belonged to Ash over on the 260's and was the one used on Top Gear for the review. He sold it about a month ago.

I am somewhat amazed when I read reports about so called high milers when they have done over 50k. The engine and running gear on the 260's is bullet proof and should be good for over 200k !!!!

I agree that feeding the car with fuel will be expensive but pay £5k more for a mundane "green" car or put that £5k in a 260's tank and it will take you about 25k miles. Thats 2 years running on average then look at what the return on the two cars would be. No contest.
