Hello does anyone know if you can choose or pay for the Michelin cup 2 tyres? I've chosen black forged alloys (maybe they come with these?)
Thank you
The only tyre available if you've ordered in the UK is the Michelin Pilot Super Sport. The Cup 2 tyre is not available from new in the UK regardless of which of the two alloys you order.Thank you

Good way to lose a few thousand pounds fairly quickly?

Right so you were actually looking to make a quick buck with your first enquiry. (as in here and ready to drive away this afternoon)

I am just genuinely surprised that I have not been inundated with calls bearing in mind dealers are quoting a 1 year wait and its car of the year and all that jazz.
I also wondered with my first question if people pay a premium for a ford ? as an example if you had an M2 right now I should think you would probably make 10k on that.
I have only driven the car gently on A roads for 40 miles but I liked it, ideally I wanted to use October - April next year as I have other toys for the summer that have just come out of hibernation
As I say only driven approx 40 miles in the car very carefully and into storage so not much chance to do anything really, my only thoughts were that ....
it arguably needs an exhaust on it depending on your intended use, as the demo car I drove seemed to pop and bang a lot more on change up, very easy car to drive, light clutch and gearbox change, wish they did a paddle shift as then be a great daily, looks fabulous in Blue, think will be a great all rounder.

I drove one just now. Deciding whether to buy it or not. I thought it looked great in black but I promised myself I'd never have another black car.
Legacywr, did you drive it in race mode with the traction off? Very different to drive to normal mode.

I drove it in sport mode, I don't believe the other modes change the engine at all?
I didn't, and wouldn't, turn the traction aids off. I had no problems with the way the car handles, the way it turns into a corner is fantastic
I did find the ride a little choppy, when I was in the passanger seat though.
Apart from steering better, and being more refined, I couldn't see any reason to sell my Subaru to have the RS!
