More of a darker claret red, image repo’s made it far brighter than in the flesh - a car with real character & attitude, just what the doctor ordered (well, the 1st owner was a doctor)

Wife informed in the early hours today - name calling & a demand for a dog, I think I got off lightly.

On the plus side, driving to Tours past Le Mans today saw enough 4 wheeled exotic metal to pay off the national debt...

Congratulations Jem, even though you have defected to the dark side :thumbsup:

I am looking forward to experiencing how you lead a hoon in an M, based on my experience of you leading in your 3.0 :lol:

There will be two petrol stops required now with Jem in an ///M instead of the usual one stop.

Steve is right. I think you will surprise even yourself. Trust me, you can actually watch the gauge move down on a hoon :lol:

... I remember a similar thing happening on that first ‘Z car exhibition lap’ round Silverstone, though felt was more to do with the corners being sharper than they look like on TV...
