😢 Traded in my RCF

[mr2lad]

Well it’s finally happened after debating about it for a couple of years,

I traded in my F at dealership

numerous reasons but main ones are, lack of use since retiring and unusable during wintertime due to obviously snow n ice on a steepish driveway,

anyways…it was a hard decision as I’ve loved this car from the day I bought it over 5 1/2yrs ago, and spent a fair few pounds on modifications but was worth every penny including all the fuel I burnt up over my ownership and the many miles of roads I terrorised 🤣 

I got the best out of it,and although it always looked like a driveway princess, it was driven hard and fast over 92,000 miles and never skipped a heart beat…. I certainly got my money back off it with the grin and wow factor..

will I miss it…… GOD YES

I spent the last week putting the car back to as near standard as possible

c/f bonnet and c/f active spoiler and c/f wing inserts air intake, wheels ,side front rear body kit and numerous other parts swapped back to OEM, only non standard things left on car are.. red F start stop button and the biggy ARMYTRIX valvetronic weaponised exhaust system, made the F way more fun ohh yeah and louder 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Even took off window tints chrome delete wrap and tints of L badges and rear lights

doing this helped me give the car up as it no longer looks like the car I grew to love cherish and owned,

I could talk about this car all day 😂 that’s how much I loved it and I ALWAYS looked back at it when I parked it up and smiled to myself and said quietly “you lucky smug show off”

end of era and a beautiful relationship 

and has travelled the whole of uk from north south east and west…

last pic is how it ended up after de-grahaming it 😉😂

oh yeah I traded it in for a RX450h fsport with takumi package with 6k on clock,

not as flashy as the RCF but neither am I 😂🫣

Lovely car, shame to see it going.  Hopefully the new owner will be one here before long.  
 

Are you selling the parts removed from the car?
