Saw a grey one on the A316 in Richmond a while ago and it looked very impressive on the road. Looks like a great toy.

I guess "a few weeks" means that you have a week to go..or there abouts.

Hope to see a photo or two once collected. thumbup

Well done Leon, I cannot wait to see the CTR3, I spent some time at Geneva looking over the one there with Alois and it's just gorgeous, the engine bay engineering is spectacular.

Papenburg is a pretty amazing place, although I've only driven on the drift circuit there, which was great fun.

Brilliant. Although tbh I thought you were getting it in mid 09. Look forward to hopefully seeing it at the next VMAX.

I've a plan in my head already here:

Top down in the MX5, on the speed limiter, and the CTR 3 flies past at 200+ thumbup

Should be an experience...

Neil,

You'll have to ask Leon to give you a good head start, perhaps even to the bottom bend....if he tries off the line, I expect nobody will stay with him.

hehe

My absolute dream car, and in black as well. You’re a lucky man, Leon.

Looks gorgeous. It’s really nice to hear a bit of real-world reporting on what she’s like to drive. Thanks!

Based on what I'll be driving, I'll be tooting the horn half way along the main straight to get him to start; the MX5 is limited to 112!
