Looks stunning. Out of curiosity, how does it compare to the 400?. ( I've always wanted more power but I also like the drivability of the 400 )

still feels the same but a bit more unruly, quite a bit more of a handfull TBH and a bit more unmanageable on the road, power steering however has changed it Im converted,also a distinct difference in exhaust note and noise levels.

It's a personal thing, when I saw the first photo I was going to say how the Imolas really suit the Chimaera better than most 5 litre estorils...

...then I saw you'd ruined them!!! biggrin

..sorry, but as I say it's a personal thing wobble

If anybody has done more mileage research than me I'll bow down...

....in the meantime I am happy to confirm the fastest colour is categorically blue. Any blue.

biggrin

I agree I did actualy phone and swap back to silver but saw a griff with the gloss black in yellow and really liked it so went ahead with the black,I wasnt sure but do now really like the way it makes the car look a bit more impossing......no down side really they can easily be put back to original colour,didnt really want to put non std wheels on either so there it is!
Thanks
