What a brilliant metaphor, I like that. Saw a McLaren last week at Prescott. It wasn't on the track, a spectator had brought it and parked it in the very bumpy, cow pat festooned farmer's field. Good job he didn't park it next to the 4x4 that had taken out the side of a Focus on departure..... We also had one as our 'pace car' on the BRM Association track day this year for our lunch time session with my other car. That was interesting.... Paul tried to blag a lift in it. It's keeper sensibly declined.

:D sounds like fun. Only trouble is, I will realise just how slow my 120bhp Seven is.........so far it has felt really quick compared to a C1 and Berlingo :lol:

We also parked in a field today as the Goodwood track for supercars was already full, but luckily you can jack-up the suspension so it was not a problem; only the queue getting out was! :x

[If I had the money I would buy a Camparo T1. That said I am an idiot but the McLaren would be in front of the 488 for me :D


apart from the fact they don't make them anymore the one I drove briefly is not something you would want to get anywhere near a public road.
