dennyMy car was declared ready for collection yesterday evening after all, so I went and picked it up today. Hooray.
Now I just have to get through 500 miles without breaking 3000rpm, and another 500 of 'taking it easy' as I gradually ramp the revs back up to normal levels. At the minute it's like driving a learner bike all over again - not enough power available to get out of trouble, or out of everyone else's way. I think I'll go for a lot of long drives in the evenings for the next couple of weeks, try to get it over and done with.

Just wanted to say...
Date: 2005-08-18 02:48 pm (UTC)What a sweet car.
Very nice.
Very impressed.
A very favourite car for me to look for, as there are only about 3 round here - Rotarys with twin sequential turbos - Very tasty... None of this non turbo RX8 stuff...
Got to be blown :-)
Wish I could have one - Wish I could afford to go sideways in one!!
