My bet is on the infamous swipe doors not letting them in and it's still on the forecourt
That or Iris has him driving round in circles on way home .....
I've had my 650s 4 months today, I've been out for a blat and only came home because I have bloody work to do My bet is on the infamous swipe doors not letting them in and it's still on the forecourt
That or Iris has him driving round in circles on way home .....
It's a beautiful evening and he's just picked up his Mclaren, I don't think he'll be in a rush to come home!
WOW. What a day, what a car! What a lucky b
d I am,
I had put a deposit down on this car without actually seeing it or in fact having driven any McLaren. This morning I drove down to Romsey to see Jullian Clinkard who has been a pleasure to deal with. The car was waiting for me glistening in the sun and as soon as I saw it I knew that I had made the right choice. I won't go through for whole spec but the important things for me were the colour, Volcano Red and that it had lifting gear. ( it is a real struggle getting one of my cars on/off the drive). It had only 812 miles on the clock (1100 now) and this week was at Ascot having a service and an upgrade to IRIS 2
I am sure you all remember your first drive in one of these cars and I am sure like all you I was gobsmacked at how compliant and docile.it could be and even more gobsmacked when you put you foot down hard. The pops and chattering are addictive and I know I will not grow tired of them. I am totally smitten by this car!
I had arranged to meet a friend at the M27 services and he ran about 30 minutes late. Despite parking at the back end of the services I was amazed at how many people came over to ask about the car. I hope I get used to the attention but not sure if I like being filmed while crawling in M25 traffic.
The car is quite simply epic and I now have the pleasure of sorting out a trip to the Alps to give it a decent run and I am also considering doing a track day at Silverstone next month.
I am quite simply buzzing this evening??

Absolutely, congratulations. Had my Spider since September last year and driven 4500 miles since. Without doubt the best all round car I have owned to date. Rapid beyond belief, probably too fast for the road, fantastic on track and it returns 30mpg on a good run. Seriously that's amazing for a car that performs the way these do. Get used to the attention, you get filmed driving all the time and cars draw alongside on the motorway to take photo's. Enjoy the car, they are built to be driven.
