It was excellent. We were booked in at 9.30.

It was handled very well.

We had the cars out for about an hour.

Scottie please tell us more! which model did you drive? What was the colours like? How quick did it feel? Handling good??

Can you give us a quick personal review?
I think you are correct about your appraisal of red! Whilst I am unsure about black, I would choose it over red any time

I have too, I hope our cars don't get mixed up at Stratstone Newcastle - have you got build/delivery date yet?

That makes three! Just goes to show that we must all have excellent taste up here in the North East Cool

You're all trying to re-live the Miami Vice days with your white suits and trendy flash drives Laughing

We were allocated a 5 door Prestige SD auto in black.

You are given the car without supervision and follow the route programmed into the Sat Nav. It took about 55 minutes to follow the route (always on road, but down a few country lanes.

It handled very well. Power was more than adequate (I drive a Jag XF) The turbo kicked in very smoothly and the car held the road superbly.

It has great presence on the road and turned heads even in quiet Perth-shire villages.

Counting the days until delivery (but have decided to change to Cirrus leather)

If i was being pedantic, the room in the back was less than expected, but up front is very comfortable.

Thinking about it..... I need to be careful what I say in case i run into any of you at Unleashed in York!

What do you mean by 're-live', is that not still the current fashion?
