FORD = Found Off Road Dead :D

Just teasing... :poke:

Of course the BMW equivalent is Breaks My Wallet :D

Expensive pastime you have there, but enjoy it.

Last time I spent a day tearing round a track (Kenilworth) in a Seat Leon Cupra R, I ended up feeling very Ill. Strange though as I used to do aerobatics a lot with the RAF! Can't do em now though. Middle Ear must have stopped working properly. I used to go to Millbrook a lot (it's fun being a Fleet Manager) and MIRA to 'test' cars on their tracks but even that makes me feel Ill now :cry:
:ant: Never anthropomorphise computers. They hate that.

Sounds good

Book yourself in for Spa in may with RMA and then you can have some fun with the datsuns

The least powerful GtR in our group is humbling new Gt2 RSs and at Silverstone in June it was all over a race prepped F458

My boys would love your car and what it offers in performance!
