Mate came round last night to give me a passenger ride in his new toy, a late model Porsche 997 Turbo which has uprated suspension and engine tuned to around 625 bhp.

Hats off to Porsche, iv'e never experienced the horizon get so big so fast in a road car, even as a passenger i could feel the thing digging in to the tarmac, phenomenal technology.

We went down a local country lane which is straight but so bumpy that in the Tuscan i won't dare go above 60mph, the Porsche made it feel like the M1 even at warp 9.

So, ballistic performance, sure footed, nice to look at, but would i swap the Tuscan for one ?..........No bloody chance, can't really explain why, but i'm sure you lot will understand wink

It's like comparing a Spitfire to a Eurofighter. The latter is better in every technical respect but which one could you love?
Fantastic analogy, sums it up perfectly, will have to remember that one wink
