Red is the best color for CTR

Robbieee · 1st February 2008, 22:13

Looks shweet!

doesnt the ctr gt not come with the panoramic roof, or is that just the type s?

IanG · 1st February 2008, 22:27

Very nice but...............It just makes me wish it was 1st March

So that I can put up some pics of mine

charlas · 2nd February 2008, 00:33

Panoramic roof not even an option on any of the R's (AFAIK).... you get pretty much everything else though besides the satnav, which I had in mine, oh and the silly footwell lighting...

And no, I didn't want the stickers (at 75 quid)... and not at all I think....

Why wait till March 1'st? it's not worth it just to have an 08 on the plate... don't give a monkeys what number my plate has on it... after all it's only for the government/cops to keep track of you with

Nice spaceship charlas.

Haven't got a clue what this 56 or 57 plate number thing is all about.
Could someone explain this to us non- brits on here?
It sounds a bit funny to me.

Basically march they have an 0x plate, so this year 08, and then october they have a 5x plate, so 58, so 2 new plates a year.

Was because dealers were annoyed with people only buying cars once a year, as it used to be alphabetical a-b-c-d every March, so they brought in 2 changes a year.

never quite understood the plate snobery.....

Thanks charlas.
I 'think' I get it.
However, I am a bit thick!

I know this has been answered well but thought this might help. UK system..... not easy to understand to be fair.
