You'd be silly not to. Imagine head butting a wasp at 100mph.

Where's the CD player?

Very nice!

Want want want.

What's the procedure on these when parking up with possible rain? I'm an unrealistic person who'd drive one of these as a daily. Would it be OK left in a cat park during the day in winter?

iPod in your pocket

but who'd want music when you got the sound of a supercharger!

No CD Player I'm afraid

But as said with the sound of the supercharger you don't want one, but if you really need music then use an Ipod or some kind of bluetooth device.

I see they have taken weight saving to the extreme and now the 'seats' are nothing more than an extension to the centre console trim

Yeah it's sort of flimsy actually, but i can see why they have done it, the acceleration is out of this world, it's like motorcycle performance in a car!

If the seats are one piece is it a bugger if your short and want to take out a tall passenger (well, a bugger for them). Actually, are the seats eve adjustable?

I'm 6ft and my dad's 6ft 3" and we both had lots of leg room, the seats are adjustable but there bolted in place so you have to basically 'remove them' to adjust the seats and it's not a quick and easy job!

Off to bedford next week for a track day so will get to drive it then, this is a supercharged version the noise is not that bad, we were wearing motorcycle helmets with no earplugs.

The only real noise you get is from the supercharger when you floor it, but i think it's an awesome sound, kind of like a whirling!

Oh really....

Going on Saturday with Motorsport vision?
