What a Rush!!

Picked up my new Chim last night and blasted back from Crawley all along the A272, I think I will remember that drive for the rest of my life.....amazing!!

And I even managed to get the top down (only took me 2mins to work out how to put the panel in the boot as well!).

Mind you not sure the lady I passed walking her dog as I accelerated through the built up area was too pleased - I think her dog quite literally s**t itself!! Whoops!!

Just can't wait to get out of work now so I can go for another blast..........why didn't I do this sooner?!

Great isnt it.. A favorite pastime of mine is sneaking through quiet villages and then giving it jhonny large potatoes from the middle of village to the outskirts scareing the elderly/kids and just plain unexpecting village type

Just be careful...

Sorry to sound patronising, easy to lose it in the first excitement, all that low down torque does strange things until you are used to it (I and others speak from experience).

I'm sure you are a great driver, not my intention to offend

No probs, thanks for the advice. I have had an S3 before so know only to give it a stab of the throttle when I know the roads are dry and preferably straight as well!!

As for getting a straight through conversion, THEN see how many people you can scare
