Currently in the middle of a boarding trip and was amazed to see a black with black wheels MP4-12C earlier today - it looked pretty special in the metal but surprisingly small. Oddly, the rear spoiler/airbrake popped up briefly as it pulled away and wheelspun - would've thought the ecu wouldn't bother at walking pace?

Sitting firmly at the top of my want list now!

Nice work - taking a supercar to a ski resort

Did it have snow chains?

The nearest I have seen was a C4S (I know not even close) with a set of skis on the roof bars in Val D'Isere last year.

The Dodgeball Rally took an SLR, SL65 Black, California and a bunch of other supercars to Verbier in February; then you would have seen a line-up of supercars in a ski resort wink

Never mind Tignes they have been testing up and down my road all day !!!

Black one this morning, with black wheels and now a burnt orange coloured one ( looks much better)

Sounds amasing more rally car than F1 car

Took my old Honda S2k to Tignes a few years ago, was amusing. Ended up being a bit too ill to ski for a couple of days so thrashed it round the mountains with the roof down with my mate's stunning gf (who couldn't ski as she'd injured her leg just before the holiday) in the passenger seat - it was a good look :P. It was loads of fun and she said she felt like a Bond girl biggrin

Did you have Aston Martin badges on the Honda?
