for a car enthusiast like me, very fun. had a smile all the way through.

for my missus who has no interest in cars who had to get up early, be a passenger for 220 miles, stand in the rain taking photos and be bored, not so fun

i did that last year in the st and lets just say the police biker let me off lightly so learned my lesson this time

i had the chance to drive the california but it just looks so cheap and wrong to me. not worthy of the ferrari badge imo. sounded good though.

That's saying a 3.0 2010 car is less? Thought everything in that sort of band was £435 after 06?


Emisions. Despite being 3.0, they are quiet good on fuel and have low emission (for the capacity)

i'd have liked to but i don't have £125 to blow on 3 laps in an m3 unfortunately

it was funny when i was coming back into the pits in the aston around the last corner. all i saw in my rear view mirror was a sideways white m3 about 3 foot off my rear bumper followed by my instructor histerical because he thought tiff was going to rear end us
