Rather than continuing to ask stupid questions if you still need evidence why don’t you grow a set and pop round to Sloane Square with a grovelling apology? Many on here would probably punch your lights out but BR seems much more forgiving which is astonishing considering your completely baseless and childish accusations.

Or better still simply take BR’s word and apologise publicly on this forum.

Karma

Why don’t you pop round there let us know how you get on

Why should he? You're the one who seems to be behaving like an online troll and won't let it drop...go on get round to Sloane Square Sherlock

For what its worth i have spoken to Bntr a few times when were specking up 2Rs. Happy to say that he's a very nice chap, and that he has all the cars he's talked about on here.

Hello David.

Did some mention "Karma"

What wit and repartit are the jealous and twisted with all the investigatory skills of Inspector Clueso going to come back with now I wonder?

Humble pie should be on the menu but I bet it won't be.

Where's Juno and his little clique of fan girls? Priceless

interesting turn of events again - the thread that keeps on giving

Thank you Apolo1. I appreciate it.

Now that I have calmed down and chilled out, it makes me laugh how much has come from a thread I started about a particle filter.

Its OK, just did not seem fair.

Though not sticking up for Juno above, but looking in from an outsider i can see as to why he might have taken the view that he has. He tells it the way he sees it. I enjoy his posts and fair play to him for calling the Macca lot out.

I still think he should be made to ride a Sybian non-stop for 24 hours

Well....I'll apologise for doubting you Burntrubber.

Your posts did seem a bit odd for someone with such huge disposable and the only Speedster confirmed order pre launch.

Fair play to you though...nice collection you have.

[Gameface]

I'd expect people with the means for such vehicles to be above this sort of thing.

Embarrassing.

Speedster launch appears to be happening at the New York Auto Show next week, the final specs could be interesting re. GPF:

This has been the best thread I've read for ages. It's been the forum equivalent of the best thriller film with multiple plot twists and kept me guessing right to the end.

Thread of the year so far!

And what a set of cars BR has!!

A thriller? It's more the utter lack of self awareness in expressing smug condescension, superiority and entitlement by the various protagonists that made the the thread quite so fascinating for me.....

Agreed. A bit of humility wouldn't go amiss.

am looking forward to seeing the finished car.

Fascinating times, when a relatively niche product limited to potentially as many as 1,948 units can be - probably multiple times - oversubscribed

Was just thinking this, going to be interesting to see how much is carried over to the actual car, like the wing mirrors etc

I agree and am very excited also.

I suspect the demand will be reduced to some degree if the indicative pricing I have been given is correct.

It’s hard to justify a £250k price tag for a touring convertible with some cool styling. I was told it would have the same engine performace as the RS but don’t see how with GPF and no side intakes. If it has the same performance as the touring at that price then that’s even more crazy.

We will know soon enough!
