There's plenty of room for a tent and clothing - it'll be what I'll be taking to Le Mans next year!
Thanks for the comments, I'm really happy with the spec I chose. Not chosen because it's "the best" but just because I liked it. I'm not going to say too much that others haven't already but I really don't understand why this is sometimes described as a GT car. This car is swivel-eyed lunacy! Some immediate things I've noticed. The car sounds great inside - the test drive last year was with a car with the standard exhaust. The sports exhaust sounds like it's got a flap and at low RPM is very reminiscent of my F430. As I'm running it in, no ventures to the red line but I'm also not expecting an Italian scream, however I'm very happy with its unique sound (the one concern I had after the test drive). The diamond cut stealth wheels actually change colour/shade depending on the angle you look at them. Azores is amazeballs in the flesh. The display and infotainment system looks bang up to date, I programmed my blat route into the nav - worked really well. I found the central and folding displays very intuitive and must have come a long way from what I've read about Iris 1. Well apart from the fact you can't see the reversing camera picture when you're twiddling the steering wheel reversing

Hope you enjoy the car and it’s trouble free.
I also cannot see the reversing camera, especially with the extended paddles, BUT ... I found by shear accident yesterday that if the screen is in its folded position, the reverse camera screen actually transfers itself from the dash to the central screen so can be seen easily, albeit it’s a bit smaller for some reason.
Enjoy!
