Aargh, git, someone else has bought one. I came so close to buying a true lightweight one earlier this year, think another member on here eventually bought it (SMD on CSLregister I think).

Lovely car, I loved the ones I test drove round the Harrogate back roads Only thing I thought when I drove it is that it needed more power. It can be pushed to around 370-380 quite easily.

Grey and black were standard colours. The orange one above I think is a wrap isn't it?

Very nice Kev

There were around 400 black to 700 odd silver grey in official colours

The cardboard boot thing is a myth made up by clarkson. They have the same boot floor just like all normal cars.

Boot lid is plastic though

Just come back from a blast in mine and it makes you grin everytime

I thought that both the green and orange one's have been vinyl wrapped, so they can be returned to normal come re-sale time?

Conti's too, but I haven't found them that bad. Rears need changing though so will probably go PS2's. DOn't think I'll go onto cups until I can afford them on a spare set of rims
