A grand day out.

[Vista]

So I had a bit of luck earlier this week.

A contact of mine in my industry had had someone drop out of an event he'd organised with a local car dealer, he called me up late last week anf asked me if I wanted to come instead for a few hours out behind the wheel on Monday..........

 

 

I had to think hard about it 🤔

 

 

 

It was a really tough call but I let him twist my arm.

 

House, Alfa and kids will be going on the market next week. You can live in a car right?

Lovely bit of stuff that. Have you broke the news to the family? 
 

What does it go like? (Reply in a Clarkson voice) 😆

It was wet and I had an "instructor" in the passenger seat (more an umpire than an instructor).

What I was surprised by was how easy it was to drive. I was expecting a 620bhp V8 to be a bit of a handful (especially in the wet) but not at all. It was extremely responsive and cornered like it was on rails. The noise from the V8? 🥰

I suspect all the Gizmos were keeping it in check. Selling the cars, the kidneys et all 🤣

With 620bhp, and a prancing horse on it, I can't say I cared too much.
