so i have good news for any carrera gt owners out there. the clutch which has always been a sore point , im sure some love it but through my experience of driving it i found it hard to live with. anyway i just had a new clutch fitted which is designed by sachs f1 team . this is a must , expensive but it totally transforms the car. also front lifting system was added , i was a bit dubious of adding more weight to the car but definatly worth it . still the most exciting supercar that iv owned

I'll never forget the sound of Mike Rob's passing me on WOT early one Sunday morning. It made the hairs on my neck stand on end. Fantastic noise, it really does sound like an F1 car...

i put a gemballa exhaust system on mine and it is pretty insane .standard cgt is a great sound but this another level plus it breathes better.
this is an arab car with same system

How much does this weigh & cost? I bet it's bloody handy.

My all-time favourite car and I salute you for owning one. I didn't know anyone on PH had one.

I love it when people keep the original reg plate on cars like this!

I don't know why but I think it looks so much better than a personal plate, like Rowan's F1.

Interesting about the clutch - seems it's a point that most talk about.

And welcome back, also smile

Seem to recall you've owned an F40 in the past (or possibly one of your erm, colleagues), what are modern hypercars like the CGT like compared to the F40?

Welcome back, you were missed.

Great car - great move to get the clutch done bespoke. Maybe you should start selling them?

hehe
