Hi all
So covered about 1000 miles in the Masser so far absolutely loving it! But got a little reminder last night just how much power goes through those rear wheels, coming off a roundabout full chat in 2nd then flick into 3rd and woah wiggly back which i surprisingly calmly got under control. Wasn't even damp on the road.
Thing is i've driven diesels for a good few years so at the moment still feels pretty alien to push to the red line normally i potter around under 4000 rpm, but now and again i open her up, the noise in sport manual actually made my ears pop, and required some nurofen when i got home lol!
Just wondered if anyone else has had a little reminder? Especially in the wet easy to spin those rears.
