Wish it was, but I sold my '6 earlier in the year. They are brutally fast, mine was running 720bhp and there wasn't much that could keep up with it.

Got to say when he pulled away from me at 1.3 leptons literally like I was standing still (and I'd been almost to the red line in each gear to get there) I did have a little giggle to myself, so completely unexpected for a grey "rep-mobile" estate to be that quick.

Only disappointment was that it seemed to make no noise but that doesn't change the fact I want one lol

Any part of the reg? It could be a mate of mine, although as he runs a non-resonated Milltek manifold back system, I can't imagine it was his!

Mine had a non-resonated Milltek exhaust and quiet is most definitely not how I'd describe it! biggrin

The wife said that the front door used to resonate from the noise!

Was my driving ok? Usually only drive down there very early in the morn when it's empty, not used to all that traffic!

Were you in megane, if so is it light blue/turquoise? Have vague memories of seeing one but can't place when.

Look, we've done many hundreds of miles around Devon and Exeter in a dark blue TVR 400se over the last couple of months. Including going around Exeter lots of times.

Will someone please hurry up and spot us please? hehe

'Twas fine, you were stationary I think!
I am in a megane, but a black RS, so probably a little difficult to spot.

I'll spot you if you'll spot me.

Not one single spot in the RS6, or the Landy in nearly 2 years living in Devon. frown
