would you like to drive my new m3 uncle jas?

[jas xjr]

too bloody right . no sooner had the very nice young man offered i had grabbed the keys and was trying to find where to put the key in.
the first thing that struck me was the fit and finish, very good quality. the second was the sweet sweet sound of that engine. a road car has never sounded so good. it was only to be a short drive of a couple of miles but its the best fun i have had in a long time. quite what the young man in question thought about me ragging his almost new car i am not sure but i had realy enjoyed it. did i mention how great it sounded? only regret was we could not put the roof down as we had a windscreen in the boot.
thanks harjinder for the drive , i thought my car was quite nippy , x308 xjr , but the m3 was in another league. wish i could find the words to describe the experience better.
if you get the opportunity to drive one , please do . fantastic car

Maybe he tried to take a bend in it.

I take it you have never driven a TVR then..

However, your nephew was a rather nice chap for letting you have a blat in his new toy!
