    Thanks! :thumbsup I actually did a lot of leg-work yesterday and called both Ford HQ in the USA and was given the number for the Ford GT CS line. After speaking with the FGT CS team, they gave me the names of a few dealers with cars - I spoke with 4 and all seemed 'very' willing to negotiate...
