I snuck out from work today...
...to pick up my car five days early!

What an AWESOME car!!! The ride is closer to a Jaguar Sport rather than raw GT3, until you press the SPORT button. Great for general driving until you want to make it as hard as nails. The engine is sublime - tractable and easy going. Press the pedal and at 4k rpm it feels like you have been hit in the back by a lorry load of lions. The noise is something else, the surge in power is amazing. Keeping the revs down a little until I get another couple of hundred miles on the clock. |

Not one, but three dustbins!

Very nice indeed. How much different does it feel to the old GT3?

Stunning car and house Trout but in the sun light that colour does almost look brown does it not!!

Not as edgy from a chassis perspective - the new one is very well damped and controlled. Much more compliant on general driving (but there is a Sport button). Throttle and engine much more urgent - even though it is still tight. Indeed Autocar said it took time to adjust to how responsive it was. Engine noise - WOW Mechanical noise - sounds like a race car - at idle it chunters away, flywheel making a hell of a noise - clunky gear engagement - but smooth as silk once moving. Obviously much less soundproofing but not noisier overall - just different. Sounds mental on the Sport setting - even at 2,500 rpm. Massive grip and stability in corners. Much better quality (if still simple) interior. And in all this it even had grown up car stuff - uprated hifi with full iPod integration (sounds and works well), sat nav and aircon. Super. Just been to fill it with V Power and when I was there I got invited to be in a music video (well the car anyway!) |
Trout.

I decided to go for the understated colour scheme :)
