What size of deposit do you need for that repayment amount?

£5,000, then it's a 48-month agreement. Can do with lower deposits no problem, can go down to £1,000, but that will increase the monthly payment.

Can any traders clarify the situation regarding the 1000 launch editions with the gold alloys please? I placed my deposit down on the 25th Jan, and assumed I would have gotten one. I have since been told I haven't. Were any of those 1000 units ever destined for the UK?

Are you having them painted or are you ordering from manufacture in gold?

Looks like they are just carrying over the ill fated 2.5 block. Would think at the very least they must be running a safer map on these new cars ?

Block is fine provided you don't run daft boost. I would assume the map is new, but it evolved with the GR models and we ended up with the 340-R map that anecdotally seems to have a much lower failure rate.
I sincerely hope the head gasket studs and pistons are revised though!

Find out in the coming months.
There was a Saloon on here that had major oil consumption issues - I'm sure it had the 340-R map too
