I've been outclassed !!!! Big time!!!!

[TUS 373]

Neighbour had a 40th birthday party at the weekend to which we were invited. Therefore said that anyone needing parking space could put a car on our drive.

We had a lovely, brand new, third journey out - Bentley Continental GT!!. All wheel drive, 550 bhp, 4 seater, 0-60 in about 4.8 seconds, 198 mph and lovely. I was invited to have a look around it with some other guys, one of whom had just put his order in for one too!

Not content with that, I learn that the owner of this new GT has just got a helicopter (a real one) too. I don't know what he did for a living - but he was not a footballer. Showed him the Tuscan and he really liked, saying along the lines of, "you TVR drivers are real petrolheads - I wouldn't be able to control a car like that". Guess that makes Tuscan owners more skillful than chopper pilots then!

Not outclassed at all.

His car is slower than yours and helicopters are just agitated palm trees

Groan. Cor-vette! My plan (when I can get myself motivated enough to do it) - was to sell the Tuscan and go for a Corvette, Mr Farnham.

Being a fixed wing pilot I'm slightly bias but I'm sure that an 'S' driver could never be a coconut
