Nice pics of a sexy car...

Really interested by "Distance d'arret" on the speedo - how does that work then?

Matt must have used a polarising filter for the shot, it shows up these marks, you can't see them in the "real world".

Looks awesome Matt

This of course, assumes the brakes work.

Its suprisingly sprightly actually. Re corners, the body roll makes your landy seem like a rollerskate. I love it.
Heel and toe / double declutching is a must for a smooth drive and the turning circle is similar to a large, wind powered aquatic vessel.

An utterly fantastic car....

There was a brown coupe in the carpark the other day, very nice (in a 70's sort of way).
