    Very nice, you've obviously spent a lot of time keeping it looking good

    But, 63hp more than mine and the claimed 0-60 figures are the same. I think it needs to go on a diet

    Very very nice mate. I'd change one thing on the car though... and that'd be the number plate.

    I think it would look better with a clean, crisp sharp looking number plate to go in line with the car.
