Hey Paul that is beautiful I really REALLY like it! 
You've been patient with getting the right car and with AP's to hey - bonus! Its the sound I remember most about them, especially when the flaps open....and if its not then your not really DRIVING it are you lol
How are you getting on with the gearbox are you missing the manual box at all?

Aye aye Andy,
How's things?
Your right about the sound, sounds amazing at full chat
As for the gearbox i have to admit it's getting good. 1st impressions were that i didnt like it too much but the guy said that it would grow on me and it would learn how i change gear and addapt to my style.
Seems to be working and the changes are getting quicker and smoother so all in all it's good.

but......well.......you know how it isYup I'm with you on the gearbox. I'm sure it will grow on you - nothing time spent behind the wheel wont fix(when's my 1st lesson then?
lol), just a case of getting used to it like you say.....a minor price to pay for such a capable car

Andy,
Will be down at Croft again this year so you can have a shottie there unless you are up this neck of the woods in which case give me a shout and i will pop across
Where's the RS anyway? Not still up here is it?
Dont think it would take much to fix that "issue"

Cheers Dave
For sure we will catch up at Croft.
Been getting a little braver with it on the roundabouts now so its proving to be a bit of an animal if provoked

Cheers for a shot of it Saturday Paul it drives MINT what a cracking car, its got to be one of the best examples out there - I'd love one, especially it it were in as good nic as yours... the AP's all round make it stop on a dime their efficiency really did surpassed my expectations.
As for the roar from the engine as you kick down a gear or two.... WOW oh did I say I wanted one.....!!!

Hey Andy,
No problem just glad you enjoyed it.
It is a totally different drive to the likes of the Evo and Scoob but i am really beginning to enjoy it.
Ingleston next month so looking forward to that
