To be fair at least it doesnt have that 'kicked in the knackers' look of the Bentayga.
I’ve got the Bentayga and as long as you get the right spec then it can be a good looking car. The car actually gets a lot of positive attention which is nice. It drives amazing compared to a Vogue or Sport.
I dont doubt they are a lovely thing to drive but i just think what they could have made it look like.

Its a shame it needs the right spec to look good rather than just looking good regardless.

Theres a Skoda yeti with an RS3 engine in it knocking out 500bhp. Do that.
It's and engine and running gear from a TTRS, now around 750bhp.
With carbon fibre panels, stripped interior carbon ceramic brakes. Weights less than 1000kg.
And yes it's fun.
I know the mad owner!!

Pete if you are serious about a Yeti R, I can put you in touch with the owner and the guys rant built it, who run a successful Race team.

Yeah I still have it.

It’s like a 986 Boxster to drive, very rattly and crappy switchgear. Not very quick and not very nimble.

No the clutch isn’t that hard to live with it’s just weird. I think I’ve stalled it once or twice and that’s it, and I’ve got the racing clutch which is even harder to use.

Basically where you need to ‘Ying and Yang’ a normal clutch and match it on the depress. With the CGT you have to let the clutch out really slowly and not touch the accelerator even a bit. If you do that then there’s a high probability you’ll stall. You let the clutch out completely (very slowly though) and once you get rolling you can give it some gas. This makes it very st when in traffic or on the slightest of any incline. In this occasion you have to give it the revs and then all you can smell is the burning of the clutch and the money in your wallet.

The LFA is better in literally EVERY SINGLE WAY.
What would I change about the CGT?
Probably buying it haha.
Cheers. Pretty underwhelming then!

However most seems to be about the slow and tootling around stuff (which I guess I did query).

What's it like when giving hell on a perfect road?

You have one car of your collection left for your last drive with the last tank of petrol on Earth.

Which keys do you pick up that morning ?

That is genuinely a gorgeous colour combination. I’m curious, which car do you take to these collections? Something big n comfy or do you rock up in another Ferrari?

Both mine as they both serve different purposes, however I’ll probably end up giving one to my brother indefinitely as he’s hanging around it a lot. Haha

That Pista is indeed very lovely!

Did you ever get around buying a Noble M600? If yes, how do you like it? If no, why not?

New Pista looks great in White with blue stripe. Works very well indeed. Also good to see a pic of it on the road too.
