Crikey, don't people gawk at the car when they see it? :)

What do you say 'cos many people know it looks like a muscle car but have never heard of it...except those that watch Top Gear :D

On my way to Bishops Stortford yesterday I stopped at the services and a forrin (Italian I think) lad came over and was beside himself with joy at it!! :D

I had no idea what half of what he was saying was but he seemed delighted.
Then today I filled up at Tescos and there were 2 tills open to pay at.

The one not serving me said;
"Gissa go mister" (he actually said that :D)
"Saw them on Top Gear and they are bootiful"

I'm wondering how long before I start with the sarcastic replies - hope I don't but...

What other questions am I likely to encounter?

Well today was the biscuit.
Actually had a chap knock on my door and ask if he could talk to me about the car!

I recognised him as a local delivery chappy and we nattered away for ages - he was raving over it.

When he asked me how much it did to the gallon, I answered him honestly and he was very surprised, he said he thought it'd do a lot less.

"That clinches it, I'm getting one" he said.

Brian, expect a referral.
