If it is the like the S1 or the 3.7l Roadster it is docile below 3k then wow!
Glad you like it

The tyres are on my next to do list, just having Matt at Life's look at the sump clearance....it has very low air conditioning fans mounted underneath so looking at options over ride height etc as well as lowering the seats, the dash is certainly much deeper and cuts the height clearance for my legs and with a lower steering wheel making it a bit harder to get in and out with any form of composure and dignity..........

I like it so far.........I've had a few V8's in different cars over the years but the that V6 growl takes some beating.

I did a full 180 skid as I hadn't had time to change tyres when I got my S1. I was tired & diesel on the damp road powering out of a roundabout got me on the A5 near Oswestry.
Tyres went on that week. Glad you like it. I took Belle to the sea front today despite the overcast. The side screens were off from the warm weekend so it was coolish.

Librands, Mulfab et all do a raised sump for the S1, maybe also for the S2. You can I thik get dry sumps but you need deep pockets.
