What...a...beast!
I bought it! (how could I not?!)
Absolutely love it. Can't stop making excuses to drive it at the moment! It does like a drink though, hey
Completely different drive to the ST, all the power in the higher revs is much more fun, and the car is so firmly planted, it's brilliant. It genuinely feels like a different type of machine compared to the ST, not just a better car.
No trim rattle, no random 'clunks' - I won't be missing those from the ST!
Thanks for all the help in this thread guys - really useful. I will let you know about next weekend either way ASAP.
Going to give it a good clean today, and buy some new floor mats - any suggestions?
