That looks fantastic. So much better looking to my eyes than the P1 and LaF. Enjoy.

First thing tomorrow. We are just down the road.




Big thanks to John, Tanya, Mark and all the team at Malton. Great service from start to finish, and generous and unexpected hospitality to boot. A pleasure to do business with and highly recommended. thumbup

Great. I've spent 2 solid days in the car and it now has over 600 miles in the clock. I really need to drive something else now to recalibrate. I'm starting to take the performance for granted. smile

Looks like a 1960s lemans type car from that angle to me.

Fabulous.

Looked great as we passed you on the triangle. (Orange 997 RS). Great way to run a new car in.

Might see you around today if your still in North wales.

Your car looked great too - I love that colour. It was an impressive sight to see the convoy with headlights flashing. We've dropped the car to its storage near Heathrow after driving the length of Wales today and now we are boarding our flight to Aus. Back in June though. smile

Edit: I see you flashing by in this video. I didn't get out of Auto mode. redface. The torque from the motors is so strong.

I spotted this beast parked outside Audleys Wood Hotel last night. I was slightly worse for wear at about 2am but it looked awesome. One of the guys I work with had his 458 Speciale there as well.
