Don't rub it in, all I got right now are pictures!! [:(]

Really really looking forward to the ultimate driver experience combo of Manual, LSD and PCCB though. Not to mention the tactile new experience alu gearstick (ECA), short-shifter and thicker steering wheel.

...plus that 480bhp with additional overboost ain't half bad either I suppose [8D]

Hey, I got a question: How many of you guys with Turbos got yourself a set of winter tyres for <7 degrees C weather? Plus if you have, how often have you used them and how would you rate them?

I think a set would be about £4k.
 
I have to say that Delbox may have a point, it really is the horizontals that don't do it for me..
Never realised until it was just pointed out...

Don't get me wrong it adds to the car and I'm sure Alex is going to be over the moon with it..
Good job we don't all like the same things. [:D]

Never used winter tyres.... although I'm sure Rob was looking into it...
All part of the fun of finding an empty snow covered carpark [;)] that and its not my main transport so I can opt not to use the car...

Clive, I'm still interested in how they drive [;)]

Do you mean:

Door entry guards in stainless steel - illuminated CXB £334.00

No it's not on my spec; but ONLY to try to reduce the escalating costs a little, otherwise I would have.

And no, I am not a chav! No Burberry in my wardrobe thank you very much, just an obsessive amount of Armani, Versace, and Hugo Boss [;)]

I think it's an acquired taste. I didn't like the white Turbo with DAJ when I first saw it. A few thousand Turbo pics later and it's now my favourite option.

I guess I am just bored now after seeing so many regular Turbos and hanker after something new.

That's a point; I had better rotate my screensavers as otherwise I will get bored again by the time I take delivery [&o]

I'm sure I read somewhere that the Turbo is 4 wheel drive. [&:]

However, I believe studded snow tyres can be sourced from Sweden if required! :rolleyes:
