Great article

One of the moments etched in my memory was trying to follow you down a pass in Switzerland watching your car fly between the switchbacks in the pass below us as you pulled away - the car was stunning to watch[]

Although Jo did ask , is that his house!!

You have finally gone and done it - well done that man, as Robert says you are living out everyone else's automotive fantasy. What a beast!

Shame you couldn't have kept the GT2, what a garage that would have been

Hope you can bring the new toy to some events this year so we can all drool[8D]

BIG day tomorrow, guys.

I'm getting all flustered. [&:]

Be still my beating heart! [8D]

Will I be able to sleep? []

Not when I see my next bank statement! []

Still you only come this way once. Life is NOT a rehearsal! [8|]

Regards,

Clive.

Ferrari are past it now anyway, over the hill! You want Brawn GP to bring out a road car is what you want, much better!! [][][]

But seriously Clive, what are you run-in plans? Surely a non-Turbo charged engine is dull as ditch-water if you can't take it passed 4000 revs for the first 2000 miles or so. Or are you breaking in gently with another trip across Europe?

If you find yourself in Berkshire do feel free to pop in for a cuppa!

Or better still if you fancy a run down to Tavistock I'll buy you coffee and cake![] Which dealer has the old banger? Do you think I could blag a test drive?[] Wallow in the moment tomorrow.[8D]

I thought we would have had a post by now? Can't still be cleaning it, it's nearly dark. []

Just got back, lads after a very busy day, including a good drive and an excellant 3½ hour lunch at Gidley Park (I was treated by my best mate). []

Terrific bit of kit. Entirely different balance to the GT2 and superior road holding I'd say from my moderately spirited return drive. F1 gearshift is out of this world. Full bore changes at less than the blink of an eye - plus even more winks from blondes on the side of the road, which really made my day! []

Have a job out over Exmoor tomorrow, I may be tempted to take her out again if its fine. The travelling will no doubt cost more than the fee earned but what the hell, it's a great way to get there!

More later - a bottle of Bollinger now awaits! [8D]

Regards,

Clive
