Anyone on here?

Lovely looking car but it annoys me to see cars like this not being driven skillfully. You'd think that someone spending vast amounts of money on a car like this would spend a few hundred pounds learning how to drive it. Shooting off down the straights and then braking fiercely for even the slightest corner as I bimbled along behind.

A lovely silver lightweight e type out the Alford road and a modern silver Morgan out towards Buckie almost made up for it though. What do all you supercar owners do with your cars though? We have some perfect supercar roads up here but you never see any.

I know the owner of the Morgan, unless there is more than one up this way. He should drive it as intended!

As for the McLaren, seems a lot of folk drive like that. Randomly braking anywhere in the road and for corners when travelling at 40!

Was it the owner of the car driving it at the time?

I think someone spending 150k on a car can drive it how they like, as long as they're safe and enjoying their car.

As a driving god, I'm sure you could do better of course.
