Nice dry sunny Tuesday afternoon so I though I'd go for a drive in this....


(thanks in advance for the loan of the the pic, Ross!)
Well, not sure I can add much to the report Ross did earlier, but the difference from a 'normal' M400 is truely remarkable. Obviously driving on her majesty's highways meant that I was confined to certain speed limits, but you do get there in the bat of an eye-lid. The torque is just enormous and highly addictive. Stuck behind traffic the car was as docile as a lamb, and all that was needed to overtake was the merest blip of the throttle (in any gear). Wheelspin in 4th was easy peasy.
I did think about about driving home and swopping cars, but alas mine dosn't have all those carbon aero mods (the benefit of which are noticeable even at the upper limit of road speeds) and so I suspect Adrian might have noticed.
Nice one, mate - wot the next generation M400 should have been like thumbup
