You name it and it has gone wrong/been a problem getting this car! Almost all of the problems are caused by our 'Government Bodies'. For example delayed for a week just because the DVLA wanted to inspect it 'just to make sure it is a NEW car'.

Sill bless them, they are only charging me £190 a year to tax it

Damn You!!!!! I had to drive it from dealer to home, albeit very cautiously!

It will definately take some getting used to.....The biggest difference is vision out all round also feels much more planted than VXR8. Only has 67 miles on clock so when it has been run in I will do a proper review

i personally am a huge fan of massive a.b and c pillars. I love the way when going around gentle gradient turns I can completly miss 40ton artics on my side of the road. I dare say yours is like being in a ww2 pillar box on omaha beach screaming achztung at the bosch

It is the 2SS with RS package (top dealer spec in USA) Got a special deal, but I know Picador are selling them at circa £37000
