I have watched that several times and it is a brilliant review, i have never lusted after a car as much as a Gransport, saw a GS in Stratstone yesterday, service manager was surprised when i said that was my fave car in the workshop bearing in mind there was a 599 GTO next to it.

I remember when I sold my 3200 and was on the hunt for a GS, I just watched this over and over. It was the bit where he pressed the sport button, the valves open and he drives it down that twisty road laughing that got me hooked!
2:40-3:15 in the video, utter class!

I think its earlier than that, either 2004 or early 2005 for two reasons - 1 - the GS was launched in 2004 and I think this was done very close to its launch, and 2 - it has blue metal tech cloth and I've mostly seen that on 04's and 05's (though I believe it was still an option in 06/07).

I was watching that vid again last night, as it happens. I always chuckle at the 4200 being put through its paces and bouncing around like a boat on the high seas!
This vid of Bigfoot's 'GranSport Elaborata' made me want to mod my GS - the car just has so much presence.

He must really miss it.
