^ Almost impossible to fault as a

driving experience

Orgasmic engine; feedback;

telepathic responses

Supermodel looks; goliath V12;

sense of occasion

% Could be too hardcore for some; we

Extremely focused; can be a handful

at the limit; outdated gearbox

Low-speed ride; difficult gearbox;

size issues; thirst
