Howdy guys,
Bought this a month ago I suppose. My business is really busy I needed something to guzzle the miles. I still wanted speed and power but had to gain a bit of decent MPG.
I tell you something, what a car. I know the brand may not do it for many but the engine is just out of this world, twin turbo, remaped. 350bhp and 700nm torques. drivability for day to day is pure class. The car is a lot better built than a e46 BMW too imo. Very nice quality about it, no rattles and despite being a msport on silly size 30/35 profile tires. The ride is not harsh at all.
It has the usual top spec motor you would expect really. Rear leg room is not great even with little old me in the front but the interior is a lovely place to be.
By the way, when I saw the pictures of the interior in the add I thought URGHHHH. I did not like the cinnamon leather, let alone the wood. I was hoping to find a car with lemon leather, however they just don't come up for sale like you would expect. Anyway when I saw it in the flesh it totally changes your mind, the leather is very nice and feels different like top quality and not your usual black. The wood really fits in well with the color leather, I will probably change it when I can be bothered but I really like it as it.
Performance wise, I don't know what to compare it to, the thing has so much torque. They run 13.0/13.2 quarter miles in this form. Really are quick and effortless.
It has a 60 litre fuel tank, if you took it easy on the motorway you could get between 700-800 miles on this.
I get around 550 with mixed driving and air con on, really good on fuel.
The only negative I can think of right now is tyre cost, I think I have around 2000 miles left on the fronts and 4000 on the rears. The rears are 265mm wide and for a decent brand are not cheap.
