Oohhhhhhhhhhhh you tease smile

I am not convinced on the front Splitter, but apart from that i like it a lot. It was a toss up between an R27 or 197 Cup for me.

Nice fleet Ben - the 'grale looks lovely.

I am really liking the thought of getting in one of these before they get too high on price.

Or maybe a little hatchback with a few more ponies than it left the factory with?

All this chat of Clios. Got me thinking, are the interiors better now?

They are not German quality but after 46k miles mine is rattle free. It's all about chucking one around on a B road and not worrying about how well the plastics are glued together biggrin

Looks pretty.

I still think a Viper Green one would look better.

Obviously a recreation. But beautifully put together, fit and finish probably way better than an original.

Speaking of 'spots', I happened across a Maccy P1 today in Hampstead.

It looked quite unlike anything I have ever seen before. 'Mazin.

There was a Rolls Royce Wraith in the car park of the golf club earlier.

I nearly had an erection.

I've got the optional corner splitters, chances of me managing to hit something so perfectly to snap it like that again are nil.

What great bank holiday weekend weather we've had; a couple of early morning blasts were obligatory. 1 month of ownership and the odometer is already up about 1200 miles - loving the honeymoon period. biggrin




And I'm loving the seats, they make such a difference while also allowing a little'un to clamber in the back.

Now that the nice weather is here, it's really encouraging me to get out in the car - like you, Braddo!

I've covered barely any miles since I bought it - around 1,000. I've now covered another 1,000 in a matter of weeks!
