Done it !!!!!!

Just got home from Ducati Wolverhampton £9500 lighter. After much deliberation and a couple of test rides, I traded in my 998 for a new white 848. Just got to wait a week or so before I can collect her. This next week is going to drag on a bit I'm sure.
I'll post some pics once I have her home.

jon.

Congrats on the new bike Jon,but will miss your 998s,twas a beauty,i would have thought that your 998 was worth the same as the 848,i would have gladly paid that amount for your bike.

You traded in your 998 and you still paid £9500. How come I thought they were that without a trade in?
