Great write up. What's the film for / when can we see it? Did you get any hassle from Canary Wharf security or did you have the necessary filming and photography permits?

Peoples reactions are amusing. Especially women and kids. When I had a new 111R Lotus people would look and stare all the time, often congratulating me. I thought it was utterly daft. I felt like saying "It's only a £28k go-kart with a Toyota engine, calm down". I guess most people are so used to seeing boxy rep mobiles everywhere I guess anything slightly different is seen as exotic. Even if it really isn't. hehe

Thanks for the very detailed and informed response ironic!

Hopefully I'll be able to find a membership tailored to my preferences in the future.

I'm looking forward to the next write-ups thumbup

Re the video, it's in it's final stage (Just been watching it) but I'm sure PH'ers will see it in the coming weeks for sure.

Shooting with the crew was done all over London with the photography work done in Canary Wharf, who were fine about things...More curiosity from them it seems & wanting to oggle over the car hehe

The SLS/458 write up's will go into this in more detail...Surreal but also fantastic!

No worries! Just remember that whatever membership you go for whether it's a supercar club or not, it'll be VERY addictive! (Especially if it's a supercar club however!) hehe
