Beautiful evening, wife needed milk, had to be Tuscan, roof off, perfect perfect perfect 15 mile round trip it is then.
Taking it easy, warming it up, after one mile some corsa type person up my backside, really you think? About mile later engine at 40 degrees, TT up my backside, back off, revs, dump valve, backs off, revs, dump valve and repeat for about half a mile. then we hit the dual carriage , no traffic just perfect..... and I really really wanted to show him the twin pipes, but engine at 45 degrees so no........ He come level with me window down shouting GO GO GO!! I wanted to, but still at 50 degrees and 2500rpm. I just had to smile (hard to explain the warm up procedure at 65mph). He sped of disappointed in me....

Make me feel better and tell me I did the right thing...

Anyway cracking drive back ........

Anyway gives others the chance to admire as they pass. No loss
I've always been a stickler for running a car up to temp, even my lease 430d although 2500rpm is about 110mph in top
