Great pics, well... most of them *green eyed monster face*

Sublimely gorge GT3, lump in throat moment for you!
Love how you managed to get a hot blonde in the street in one of them!

Looks very glam there, I'd love it.

Unfortunately the water wasn't deep enough to bring the mothership in closer, so the dinghy had to be used.  Sorry about that.... :P

Looks like you covered a similar area as I did a few months back (and miles :) ).

Did you do the factory tour?  I really enjoyed that one - and we had similar weather as well.
