Pista looks good, any thoughts on the spec for your SP2 once it’s confirmed? This render I saw on Instagram a while back looks superb

Oh my, think I’ve done a little sex wee. Yeah I’m going white with the french flag running over it and historic tan leather racing seats like a replica of the 860 Monza.

Nice spec on the pista. Are you still planning to make any more videos? Really like the bmw m2 you did.

Pete, we’ve had the “if you could only keep one car” here.

But what about after that if you could only have one second car? What would it be?

Modern and effortless speed or more classic and raw?

There was definitely a promise of a 695 review wink

Yeah very soon, sorry just had a lot on recently. Lost a few people around me so decided to step back from everything for a while.

Most definitely be the GTC4 Lusso and the 695 biposto. The Lusso is just something else, I could just drive that thing all day. Much better than my Wraith ever was.

Pista looks stunning! Thought I preferred the looks of the 458 Speciale still but now I might be changing my mind!

On another point and I am sure covered off already elsewhere but if you like your classics - what about an Eagle E-type? Some pretty special kit there.

Yeah they are a lovely car but I’d rather an original E-Type lightweight. They’re around the same money however they’re the real deal.
As Jags don’t really hold their money that well though, it’s a car that always has me on the back ropes. They are beautiful though.

Will you be attending the Geneva show this year Pete? Interested to see if anything takes your fancy.

I will indeed, not really heard of much that is going to blow me away. Last time I was there I bagged myself a Senna and a Pista. Don’t know what it’ll hold in store for me this time though.

No interest in Aston's mid-engined stuff?

Good to see you back, sorry to hear about the unfortunate losses that you have had of people around you.

The pista looks an awesome spec and the 812SF are mega! I can’t even imagine what they must go like, I have just changed to a Jag XFR and the mid range on that is bonkers so what these super cars must be like is mind blowing!!

An E-Type with an RRP of £3k that's now worth £750,000 hasn't done too bad! smile

Just sharing this from the other Pista thread... just to wet your appetite Pete.

I've had mine a week or so now and have to say its a truly fantastic car
yes you could say the exhaust isn't as good as some other cars - but thats a minor issue
Other than that its hard to fault - it certainly feels way faster than I remember the 488 being and they have dialled back the TC which I thought in Sport and wet was too invasive on the 488
