Nice car, the sort of car id love to have as a first ride but unfortunaly my insurance would be farrrrrr too high.

Yup, I had my VTR as my first car and it wasn't cheap... Three years later I'm now paying 1/5 of what I was

Mine is looking particularly shiny today, even after a random weekend blast through Brussels, Brugge, and Calais

No comment on the parking.

It's a good drive that. As long as you avoid the radar on the E40 outside Gent and the 2 around Dunkirk, it's plain sailing. Those lovely 2-lane stretches down to Calais are brilliant, especially at 6am on the weekend when it's deserted :cool:

Did you not spot them?

You need to know what to look for. In Belgium there will be radar signs to warn you a good 500 yards before the Gatso. But the're not reflective.
I don't think the ones in France even work to be honest, but they're little grey boxes with yellow/black tape around the edges.

should have got a Jag

It wasn't my first choice. I wanted a Nissan GT-R, but my daughters couldn't fit in the back of it comfortably. Maybe it was one of those things that is meant to be as I could not be happier with it.

My daughters are 6 and 8 and I am surprised at the lack of choice for true performance 4 seaters, not just 2+2's

XFR jag still looks well, enjoy

Mercedes and BMW also do fast practical cars in E63 AMG and M5 form.

It reminds me of the episode of Top Gear where Richard drove one and went on with its spec list, same colour etc, good episode! Maybe this will be more reliable than the Nissan, i've read some not so typical Nissan related goings on with the GTR
