Thanks.
Well it took a bit of getting used to, having never had a performance car before. The first week I was over reving in 1st quite often and had to work to make sure it didnt stall, and the accelerator is really all or nothing, but thankfully I seemed did master the car eventually.
You have to nurse it at low speeds or you can easily over rev, so it can be fairly slow off the lights (unless you want to thrash it which I don't), but once free of traffic you can unleash the beast. The sound and handling all come alive, the engine makes a fantastic noise when you floor it at higher speeds and this is really wonderful to hear and quite honestly nothing like I have ever experienced!
Again, the sports suspension took getting used to as well. At first I thought the car was going to bump me to bits but now I have got used to it and don't even notice. I have to be very careful over speed bumps and obviously steer clear of going up on kerbs.
Reading the forums I am sceptical about the reliability of this car in the long term, but for now I am just going to enjoy the ride.
