I have just got in from driving that bad boy up from southampton. All i can say is WHAT A CAR!!!!!
It was a real mission to get though. It was decided during my night shift last night that today would be the day. I got up yesterday at about 1800 after getting a few hours sleep during the day, worked 2200-0700. Got to leeds/bradford airport for 0800 only to have my flight delayed untill 1010 - i felt pretty rough at about 0930. I arrived in southampton about 1100 and got the train to the town centre. Then i walked all the way to the ferry port to meet the owner. I left there at about 1300 and drove all the way back (with a stop in Guildford). I am now getting ready to go on a work night out. Good job i've got a couple of weeks off now to recover lol.
This is my first time in an auto and tbh i was getting worried about how rubbish and slow the car felt. That was untill i attempted to pull away from some lights by planting my foot down!- FECK ME!!!! This thing really shifts. Kick down is ace isnt it lol
Its so good i must admit i have been tempted to leave the poor thing alone and sell the two...................................
