Well I have collected the car and driven from Brands Hatch into Mayfair.
Very much on honeymoon with the car and feeling very pleased with myself!
Seems well put together, it is decently quick when you put your foot down and sounds lovely. Driving though central London was a bit of an experience - took nearly an hour to get from embankment to Dover street.
The car is much more tractable than I thought it would be - interestingly the idle was a bit lumpy when in traffic at first but after a couple fo minutes settled a couple of hundred higher than previously. Can only spot one minor fault (a rusty screw on one of the wing mirrors) - I even managed to put the roof and sidescreens on in the car park with no drama. Although I have somehow managed to lose the car park ticket which will be expensive when I try to get out.
Looking forward to the twisty bits once I get off the M1 tonight.
Thumbs up to all at Brands Hatch - very welcoming and they have been a pleasure to deal with. Also saw the 3Wheeler in action and what a vehicle that is! Unfortunately I didn't have time for a drive which is probably a good thing as one of the few things more expensive than a car habit, is the divorce that would have followed the purchase of not one but two totally uneccesary cars.
