Funny how we all see some thing different in cars but I loved the Vanquish.....the special feeling when sit in it......but then I am a tad older than you........Still jealous about the McLaren......

nothing better imo to look at! but driving it was underwhelming!

agree with you! Vanquish looks amazing but the drive not great.
I like the look of the maclaren and its fast, but I prefer the sound, interior and exterior of the 458.
its all personal choice though. love the gull wing doors.

Love the look of the McLaren.... what colour are you wrapping it with?

Also, separate question, did you keep the original wheels when you bought the Strad ones?

That's a pity, I still need to find me a set of Strad wheels as I think they look much smarter than my Neptunes... are yours black or anthracite?

thats the GT though! i was buying this car! until i went to knutsford and went in the S! the GT is much softer, less noisy, and the car you would want when older :)

That's gorgeous, Dave. The Spider, "unfortunately" will be even more tempting when its price drops to something sensible.

Hewbie, good luck with a really fast sell before Mrs H finds out about your accidental moment of weakness. Well done on that. Good choice.


cheers will put pics up on collection all early days and need to sell the mas quickly!

I'm 6ft 4 and found getting into the 570s really easy, the cabin is stunning, so simple but yet designed perfectly for the driver and very comfortable too. One day one day.

Love it buddy...Great choice.......Think they now trump Ferrari on looks and quality....When I had a drive in the MP4 12C then same day I drove a 458 I just thought the interior quality was so much better and for me I preferred the minimal look to the over jewelled Ferrari.

Just on the orange wrap...Couldn't you find an orange one already...It seems to be one of the most popular colours.

Grey or black was always the plan to use a good base! As I get bored of colours! So it will probably go green at some points aswell!
