Collecting first thing, sales guy just took a load of pictures for me after he washed it. :)
Guess he likes carbon too but that is like around £6000 worth of carbon fibre, crazy ****.

Can't wait to get M3 back and have the two carbon blue babies side by side. :D

Christmas has come early! Bet you can’t wait! Classic timing for a bit more snow in the midlands too!

Is it going in for a proper detail after the sales probably used a grit infested sponge to clean it :p

Mr Gibbobly Wombly Shmobbly,

We've added an additional bonus item into the agreement for car 'Blue Shouty Fast JAAGGGG'.

'FREE SWIRLS ON EVERY PANEL'

I hope this makes you joy joy happy,

Loves,

Sales Dude.

That's an amazing looking car with a fantastic sounding engine, but those exhaust crackles don't really do it for me, certainly when revving at a standstill with no engine load like that. It sounds like something is loose or broken.

Just me? :p

I dislike the mapped in pops and bangs that you get on most performance cars these days (Ford seem to be the worst for it on the Focus) but I think I can get over my hatred when referring to a car like the F-Type.

Lovely looking thing! What's the difference between the R and SVR?

Indeed, but the Merc A45 is worse than Ford/VWs IMO - the noise they make on upshifts even when not being driven completely balls-to-the-wall seems unnecessary just to try and mask the 4-cyl drone.

8k just to get it upto 200? Screw that... Better buy a BRZ or GT86 and slap a turbo kit on it, 300bhp+ easily for 4-4.5k.
