They're very cool. Had a good look around them on a factory tour a few weeks ago.

I think it looks great in the metal - and the Bentley Brooklands in the car park yesterday evening looked pretty good too. Will try and put some pics up later.

When I bought my BMW I looked like Shaggy from Scooby Doo, but the guy at the BMW dealership said it wasn't a problem as the [fairly recent] introduction of the National Lottery had prompted a memo from BMW GB to all of the dealerships informing sales folk that any old scruff might now be a potential source of income! I wasn't quite sure how to take that, but I wanted the car so I bought it!!

I remember the builder who got extended test drives in every bit of exotica you could think of shortly after the lottery started by telling the salesmen his numbers had come up.

After he had driven millions worth of cars he then confessed it was only 3 numbers which came up and netted him a tenner.
