Just things like having to take every speed bump diagonally will get on your tits if its a daily driver.


Is the mk1 lower than the mk2? I rarely have problems with speed bumps, much less than I did with the Noble anyway. But then I have the bloated barge of a comfort model.









Go on mr nervous, go on...


Dunno, but I think the RS may be 10mm lower.

That car looks lovely.

The power of the GT3 mafia is ever increasing. At this rate we'll be able to cause a bounce in demand & prices

I'm not sure you can join the mafia. Not with that haircut anyway.

Have you seen the Simpsons episode where Homer joins the Stonecutters guild? They eventually all have to quit and form a new organisation, the 'No Homers'. I can imagine a 'No Nervouses' in the future.

He's got a Cerbera Dan, I think hes used to it - just not from a 4wd porker at 20mph

Go on Nervy, Black GT3 mk1 - then give me the keys whenever

Who's a member of this infamous mafia then? I'm getting anxious (read: nervous) that I wont be admitted... eek.

Fair point, although I still can't work out how he does it in his car. I was trying to unstick the back of my car at Bedford on Sat and I just couldn't get it free. It just dug in and flung me up the track every time, further demonstrating that I could accelerate harder and earlier out of all corners!

keys are yours whenever you can prise them from my cold dead hand chum. so, about three days after purchase then.

You need water or wet leaves... I managed to spin my friggin smart off a roundabout at 40mph+ through aquaplaning, so it must be easy to lose it in a porker still (similar weight distribution/ masses more power) - then again, the pansy has 4wd
