I kin love it, get used to being pointed and stared at but you know these people know what it is. Love the acceleration and performance.
Want to keep the car forever.
Only problem, been pulled 4 times already, twice had them on my drive, last time for the tints on the windows, 1st time for pulling away from lights, like it had been stolen . Twice for routine vehicle check, Sundays pair in a Silver mondao asked me all about the performance etc, they just wanted to have a look round it. Asked if it was modded , i said no
one said 380bhp, you dont need to.
Best 6 months driving ive ever had

Glad you are enjoying it. Over three years of ownership for me and the car is staying for sure.

Know exactly what you mean davey, when i first got the car i was totally paranoid about being pulled over and although mine is black and should blend in better than say imola or misano red i was still pulled over once. i took delivery of my car in the last weekend of october last year and it had 54k on it - its now showing 63k!! so addictive to drive even if the standard suspension is crap although that is going to be sorted very soon.

I'll have had mine for 2 years in June,The longest time
i've owned a car and still no plans to sell

Had mine over 2 yrs now and I still enjoy driving it now! Like cleaning it too

I have a love/hate relationship with mine – the love part is winning at the moment!

I have the same love/hate with mine, as Rob will know...

Had mine 1yr and a half and put 50K miles on it.

Only been pulled over once... for having no rear number plate (having taken it off, not had it stolen).

Having said that, although I'd rather not, I'm currently considering changing it though; the only thing that makes me have my love/hate relationship with it, is the fact it's FI.
Love it at times, hate it at others.
S5 on the other hand, has very similar performace, the added bonus of a V8... and is NA.
Problem is, they're too pricy.

At least get it remapped by MRC before you get rid of it Marcus. It's like having a new car!
