Pleasures of driving the Green Machine
Discussion
Driving through a local village this afternoon, sun shining does it get much better? Yes!
There was a group of 8 or 9 little tots, maybe 5-6 years old with an adult, as I got near they all started waving and smiling, so I tooted the horn, waved back (madly), blipped the throttle went on my way with the biggest grin ever

I had similar returning form IOW. Drove down the ferry ramp to a large group of Cub Sprouts cheering, so I gave them a hoot and a roar as I left.
Of course, they may have been cheering because my exhaust caught on the exit ramp, and I was giving it large revs on the clutch, up the steep ramp to get off
... I prefer to think they were just impressed!

Was out in the S3 last night to meet up with Griffy. I pulled up outside her house, just as the sun was setting and a couple of kids had chased the car down the street on their bikes, shouting "lovely car!" and "can you take us for a drive?".
They were out of breath as they were trying to keep up.
Made me grin from ear to ear. Roll on the summer.

Totally agree Ray. I have just spent a week away in Farnham and went down in the S3 - taking it on the longest trip so far. Performed perectly on the way down but today was even better. As the sun was shining I dropped the hood and left Aldershot about midday heading for the M40 to avoid the M25 car park. First roundabout saw a Racing Green T350C on a prob test drive. Waved across the roundabout and next minute he was round the roundabout alongside - what a fantastic sound. Then a three hour trip unable to hear the stereo, waved to two Chimps and a Cerbera, and at the end totally relaxed with a silly grin on my face. Only down side was a couple of instances of prats pulling out to block the outside lane when they saw what was coming up behind - terrible thing jealousy.
Went to wedding at a rather fancy country club last weekend. Car was parked up in the car park overnight alongside a mate of mines 2 year old Porsche Boxter and someones Audi TT.
In the morning some new guests were arriving and admiring the cars. Guess which one attracted the most interest and favourable comments... I Laughed. It did rather p*ss my mate off as he'd only bought his a week earlier and he paid over 30K for it!
Nothing as beautiful as an S!!
