The PS 4S has 40 profile tyre and I would not want to change the rolling diameter or height
The turn in with the Cup 2s is phenomenal with the 235 width vs the 225 standard but I think that is what ultimately blunts the steering finesse.
I think I will go back to Pirellis next once the Cup2s are spent and also get a new geometry set up with Aldous
... To help that along i booked Donington in a couple of weeks smile

From the US Tirerack site :

So they should be available in the UK too.

You are right. I did find them. I used balckcircles to check and they didn't stock them.

Hi CS folks,
Sorry if this has been covered elsewhere, I've scanned a few similar issues but nothing exactly the same.
I have my car on a trickle charger but somehow it became unconnected and before I realised the battery was completely dead. I disconnected it, recharged it and power is good. However when I reconnected it the alarm siren was triggered, including flashing indicators. The key does reset the immobiliser and the car starts ok. However I can't get the alarm to reset. I've disconnected the siren to look into it without going deaf, but the indicators still flash, I've run the car for 10mins to try and get all the electronics to reset but without success. I've switched it off at the master cut off and come in to try you guys! Any suggestions - its seems weird the immobiliser will disarm but the alarm won't! Cheers in advance.

You could try isolating the battery overnight from the switch in the trunk, then try again with usual start up procedure in the morning.

It might be in panic mode. Press and hold the fob button.

Hi chaps, thanks. I left it overnight, reconnected the master switch, you were right it was in panic mode holding the button on the fob cleared the indicators. Although I tried to refit the siren and it is still sounding. Feels like something is still triggering the alarm to sound rather than just needing a new siren - what do you think?

Perfect car if you prefer polishing to driving, then you can buy a second one with slightly higher mileage for driving.

Ultimate collectors car but to retain it's value totally undrivable

Dear All, within London or a few miles of London, who are the specialists we would give a CS to for service and repairs?

There's probably a lot of CS knowledge with Elias at Autoficcina & Aldous at AVEngineering

Not that I’m in the market for one but the Challenge Stradale is my dream car and I like to keep an eye on prices.

There are a few for sale on AT most of which are around £200k. The cheapest one is “only” £129k, is this mainly due to the higher than average miles or is there some history to this car?

The LHD cars are generally cheaper as there were more produced.
There were only 119 UK RHD Challenge Stradale's created hence values are holding better.

Hi All,

Looking to buy a 360CS in the coming weeks/months. I’d like a RHD car, I’d be happier with one with a few miles on so I can actually use it without too much worry.

Has anyone got anything they would be interested in selling? Red or Black with Stripe is preferred.

Thanks
