My brother went to collect my nephew in it yesterday (he's 12) they then drove down Union Street (this is in the middle of town) :shock: My nephew said that poeple were out with camera phones etc. Must have had at least 50 pictures taken. :shock:
It's a good job you never made it out here to Eilidh's party after all, the neighbours would all have had heart attacks, one would have come out to complain about the number of cars parked in the street, and all our party guests would have been queueing up for a pax ride ;-)

Top job mate, enjoy your forthcoming trip and pay attention to those stickers. In fact the guys should have got one to put where you can see it - ON THE DASH 8)

The photos still show it with an orange tint.

It is actually a very deep Ferrari red.

Sorry I never came in by, but the weather and time was against me.

Hope you and Eilidh had a good day.

Red car says to the green car: "Hey man, I've got 255 horses, slip diff, s/c, fancy wheels and a nice shiny paint job..."
Green car replies: "Yeah, you're still heavy and 5hit....fatty!"

I don't know driving in another way which isn't risky. Each one has to improve himself. Each driver has its limit. My limit is a little bit further than other's.

I think you will find that thw 2-11 is only 40kg heavier

In my world 40kg is not a lot :mrgreen:

Lotus quotes the track version at 745 wet. A guy on SELOC said his road spec one came in at 771 with a full tank

I should think not. Slightly different parameters?
