I'm pretty sure which of those two vehicles got the most attention!

That's a very atmospheric picture. I'm guessing it was taken at one of the "pop-up" hotels near the horse racing course?

Got to agree about the looks but then arent all modern cars of a specific type ( SUV, small hatches , etc) getting to look more and more alike?

I tested the Portofino M on Wednesday as I mentioned above. Did it go? of course it did but I might just as easily been in almost any other brand making the same sort of car.. Full of electronics, little screens all over, funny buttons on the steering wheel, big filter in the exhaust making it sound BORING. Totally underwhelming for your £200k.

Maybe this is old man talk, but as far as I am concerned , I have lived through the age of interesting cars and exciting driving between the 60s and the millenium. For car enthusiasts, , its over IMO.

I have to generally agree Howard but you can still have an individual car that is fun and reasonably reliable as most cars are. The usual downside is they are not overly comfortable, have little luggage space and cost a fair sum of money but, hey you did say interesting and exciting cars.


Here for a good time not a long time!!

Spot on - popup hotel at the horse racing course.

And this eco is turning heads.
We were pulled over by the police just because they wanted to take a photo.
It has been the first photo tken by the police without a charge...
