Take it on a carlimits day, where you can safely push its limits and find out how it behaves before it surprises you somewhere!

Lovely car - I'm not jealous of most cars, but I do feel the WANT for that!

Beautiful looking car you've bought there, I envisage much fun will be had! The plate placement and front end does remind me of the mx5 (no bad thing)

Any mods planned?

Tell me you've got a garage. Or at least a cover of some sort?

I have a road registered G2 in the US. It came with the factory road windscreen that gives you much better wind protection. Mine is sprung a bit too stiff for rough roads. This can have some bad results if you are not careful. with a little work, you can cut a larger Lexan windscreen to get a little better protection. I also made stands to mount some Raydot replica mirrors with convex glass. Now, I can see in front and behind.

Have fun!

Sounds nice Mike, any photos?

Never seen one of those before and at least with that car you get more protection with the windscreen, still like the little aero screen on mine though.

Fantastic weekend with the Ginetta, covered 200 miles and enjoyed every second. The only damage was to my wallet for fuel biggrin really starting to get comfortable with the characteristics of the car as well, very happy with it.

Matt
