Collected this beauty yesterday, V8V 4.7 with SportShift 1.



First time I've ever owned such a fabulous car and I've been doing this smile and this biggrin a great deal.
The colour is Titanium Silver in case the photo is poor.
I find SS1 takes a little while to pull away but I will do many clutch learns, never drive in comfort mode, avoid reverse whenever possible......yes, I have been lurking.

P.S. Which ThumbSnap code should I use to show the larger picture here?

Thanks for all your kind comments. It's bloomin cold and wet in the south east today. Bring back some of that Caribbean sunshine for us all.

Question - I don't currently have clear rear lights. The colour is so light that I think it would look a bit washed out at the back. Does anyone have photos of a similar colour car with clear lamps so I can compare?

Here you go...



I tried to order my car with red rear lights for the same reason that you are concerned, but it got complicated. However I am really glad I was effectively talked out of it and ended up with the clears after all.
