They sound good doing burn outs on Arnage high street as well, although I have to admit they probably don't smell as good as they sound! ;)

Wont forget that Ian as me and Frank were right behind you. Awesome is the only way to describe that moment.

That's the spirit Ian, give em a run for their money, it's good when you know they can't catch you..!!

OK, so picked the Spyder up today and so far it has matched all expectations. The car is fast, well planted and a joy to drive. The F1 gearbox is better than I expected although it does seem to get caught out if you are inconsistent on it's use. My car has a modified exhaust which I love, just the right amount of noise when asked with a lovely pop back when off throttle, my only criticism is that it has a bit of a drone a low revs, 2k ish, easily sorted by using more :D

Need to get a few more miles under my belt to understand the best way to drive it, but it might be difficult over the next few days as I am supposed to be on a family holiday. In fact I was surprised I managed to get the day off to go and collect.

Time will tell but so far all the signs are positive, although the bank manager sees it slightly differently ;)

Bank Managers are all the same, but they are there to serve..!! Glad you like it so far and long may that continue..!!

Lovely car you have there, Matt sorted her well. Enjoy the family holiday, you'll spend it anticipating the return so you can have another drive!
: )

These Spyders are addictive.

Believe me I don't need any hairdressers, no such thing as wind in the hair when I drive the Spyder ;)

Come to think of it there is no wind in my hair any other time either :(
