Thought about it but would like a VXR ideally or possibly a VXR8.

Got get rid of another car first.....

Oh and its 'only' 430hp now although lots of other nice bits on like suspension and APs....

Fancy a supercharged car

Hiya

Assuming you are meant eastbound that was me - time and rego are right. My regular cummute to either maidenhead at that time or Heathrow if an hour earlier. The best thing about those speedrestrictions is dropping down a few cogs and enjoying getting back to cruise speed!

Would never get up that earlier if it was not to get into the ro.....
