Well, having now being the very proud owner of a T350C for a whole 3 days I can honestly say that it has changed my perception on a great deal of things, some good - some bad.



What could be bad?

Not being able to drive the car for 24 hours a day, things like sleep and work are a distraction.

The total mayhem it causes when parked or at junctions.

The Nova brigade and their unusual use of the two second rule...

...to be honest, that’s about it!



What's good?

The pure unadulterated, undiluted and uncensored assault on every sense - a complete tactile connection with the machine.



The list of goods would go on all night - there is a couple of issues that need attention during the rapidly approaching 1k service - for all those critics and none believers out there - I DO NOT CARE!



Its early days - but the signs are there...



This car may spit and fart at you, it may occasionally be a little temperamental and show its foul temper - but when you connect - nothing will ever be the same again.....



I'll post some serious pictures when the sun comes out again although it was painful enough stopping and getting out to take these as it was.

Hi Nicksey,

I know exactly how you are feeling. I was going through your stage in May.


Everywhere you go people gawp. Men seem to fall into 3 categories;

1. I'm not into cars - I don't even notice you (or the awesome noise!)



2. I very much like cars but I'm determined not to give you the pleasure of letting you see that I have clocked the T350C



3. Wow - what a fantastic machine. I'm going over to have a chat!



As I've said elsewhere Nicksey, if you think it's good now, wait until you've had your first service and you can start to use the revs. Having heard a few horror stories re the speed six I'm doing the full running in thing!



Have fun!

Snakes

Nicksey, superb, glad you're enjoying it!.

Snakes, I thought this may have been the first thread of someone showing off their new car without you hijacking it with pictures of yours. I was wrong!
