MOT

Comforting to know that low mileage Ct's with full history are still being advertised for the same price as we paid for ours 5 years ago. I think ours is a keeper and I will probably get a professional paint correction done on the exterior later this year. The rest apart from a very slight kerb rash is pretty much spot on.

The CT is pretty much a well-developed car with the few updates and that may be the reason why there are not many big problems with the CT in the forum. Many brand-new models have problems that needs to be corrected and they have been done on the CT before it left factory.

It's the first car in a long, long, list of vehicles we have owned that has shown no depreciation to speak of in five years. In comparison a  very low mileage immaculate 2015 Jaguar XF R-Sport that we also owned from 2017 for only 2 1/2 yrs lost half it's value. Still, I guess most of my cars are not bought with my head 😄apart from the 1992 Sl which just increases in value year on year.

Not got any thing as posh as that what goes up in value unless you class this as a classic, I know that's a Yeti in the back ground, it was a moment of madness.LOL

Nice, 1960 190sl at a guess. I met a guy in Tasmania with one at a Mercedes SL Pink Ribbon event, out shines mine by 32 years

Nice, I had a 78 750/4 K2 took it over to Australia in 89 and rode it over there for many years. Then let it go and bought the 1100 Blackbird. I should have kept it as they are fetching good money in top condition.

I never really took to the blackbird, my eye was on the X11, which is an undressed blackbird.

I had an NSU MAX before I was old enough for a driver's license. We did gravel pit races with the old poorly (not at all) maintained motorcycles and had lots of fun. Found a picture of one that doesn't look the least bit like the one I drove because everything not necessary to drive was stripped off and what was left was scratched and broken. But it could run.
