London. Expensive, crowded, too hot today, less brits than in spain and so many expensive car I feel like stuart littles poor cousin.
Oh and why do people take pics of nice cars down here? It's not like another won't be along in a moment, car geekery I understand but voyeurism is a perversion.

By the time you've factored in the turbos, fake engine noise and the rest, not sure I'd be that bothered about the 'box.

I think I'd like to try both before deciding. A year with each should do it. I strongly suspect I'd take the DCT too, I prefer it in the E9x M3 too.

Balls to a manual.

Only ever played voluntarily when I need to be somewhere far away, quite soon. Led Zep and Kashmir for somewhere closer by, in a hurry. Along with quite a bit of other stuff not found on your average radio station.  Like the big fella or not, the live version with Karla De Vito (looking oddly attractive in a weird 70's way) of Paradise by the Dashboard Light on The Old Greg Whistle Test is well worth a google...

However every time I jump into a Loti I'm reminded of just how fantastic they are, so hard to beat from a drivers point of view and dirt cheap to run.
I quite fancy a Chim next but not sure at the moment.
Oh and I have an Evora S parked up outside (you may, just may ne able to hear the exhaust tinking from there) and my God it is fantastic. I know I know.....I've driven tens of thousands of miles in them on road and track but tonight it really showed it's finest colours.
11/10. This probably belongs in the 'you know you're getting old when...' thread, but I'm tempted now by an Elise S2 becasue I think it will be easier to get the roof on and off than in the S1, and the Exige doesn't really do it for me because I'm underwhelmed by the track thing. Ageing really is s t.
