Surprisingly good. Temps were ok this morning which helped.

When I turned on Aero mode, it dramatically changed the feeling of grip as the car felt a lot more planted to the road.

My year with the hedge finder F-TYPE R did me well as I short shifted

Mate had one

Sold it on to somebody else I know

Both took a big hit financially

Also very high running costs and back Up is crap.

That old one is seriously dated by the S models that followed on

Enjoy anyway

Well Dave going on your history, at least you will drive this car as it is meant to be driven.
