595 Comp 24hr test drive.
Discussion
I've just spent a very enjoyable 24hrs and 150 miles in a 595 Comp.
I absolutely love this car, it sounds good, looks fantastic and really does put a smile on your face, the amount of power is just right for the chassis and the bubbling exhaust just adds to the occasion.
My only niggle is the Sabelt seats, despite being on the hard side I actually found them very comfortable, my main issue is that the lumber position (for me) is pressing too much against my spine.
The leather seats from the Turismo would be the perfect solution but I fear they may rob the car of some of it's character.

Had mine for four weeks today, and passed 500 miles this morning.
It’s brilliant - bursting with character and a real hoot to drive.
It’s a weekend fun car for me, and I haven’t done a really long trip in it yet, but I find the Sabelt seats pretty comfortable. I think the ride quality has improved as well, or maybe I’m just getting used to it!
I love it to bits....

I'm really disappointed with the Sabelt's, if the lumber support (for me) was better, they would be ideal.It’s brilliant - bursting with character and a real hoot to drive.

Deciding what colour to go for is now my dilemma. I had my heart set on Modena but now Record Grey with red leather is tempting me

I can’t say I’ve ever had anyone complain about the Sabelts (it’s normally compliments) however I know we’re all different body shapes so it’s what works for you. I did find when driving a non Sabelt car is that I found myself sliding about to much.
The base of the seat was fantastic, it really was just the protruding lumber support that didn't work for me, a real shame.
