Hello, Greetings from cold north where radars are a rarity and empty twisty roads are the ones we have.
I´m Oliver, I live in Finland, I´m 10% overweight and 10%+ midaged. I enjoy everything which is too loud, too thirsty, too dangerous, too nonsense and everything else the elderly ladies in your family will mention.
So basicly, my hair on forehead tell that Beatles is not coming back. So I have an excuse to wear a helmet as long as I like without losing my hairdo.
My previous cars to mention were Audi Allroad 2.7 biturbo, VW Touareg V8 and Porsche Cayenne S.
Audi was comfortable and fast, T-reg was comfortable and not fast, Cayenne wasn´t comfortable but fast.
I outed all of them on several track days and trust me, I scared the <beep> out of many so called fast drivers in so called faster cars.
I got fed up with Porsche service when they told me to get a bus when I left the car in for two days service under warranty.
A week earlier I traded my wifes Nissan Murano to Audi Q7 V8 which has a real towing ability, so I could sacrifice my own towing hook. And I´m so incredibly glad I did.
You tell me that the ride is harsh, well it might be, but there are thousands of people who drive Land Rovers which will never leave tarmac. Majority of my driving is charm and relaxed, but then there are those days you cant avoid without proper medication - I mean the track days.....
My wife doesnt allow me to buy a Caterham nor Elise, so I have to survive with these everyday wheels.
So I have to suffer inside a Audi S6 avant V10 -06 with a fairly wide grin
