Don't know I haven't seen it yet!!! :)

But more than likely. The only time John was driving and pics were taken is when they were taking pics of the 612 from the inside of my car looking over the dash.
So yes, all other moving shots are me at the wheel.

just read the feature, yes the forum is mentioned, in the write up it mentions about finding good garges/specialists, autocar say ”pistonheads.com and sportsmaserati can help with this”


Good to see the forum getting a mention.

Got mine today and read it straight away. I liked the premise of the article and thought John got the balance about right, though in mentioning the 'drag racing' on more than one occasion it made the GT-S come across as a bit of a laddish bruiser, which yes it can be when you want it to be (as can the Scaglietti) but it's still a pretty classy GT at the end of the day. The article was based around a day on a track, so Dan rightly had some fun, but I bet it was every bit the gentleman's Grand Tourer on the way home and no less so than the 612 under similar circumstances. Oh and you can get a baby seat in the back of the GT-S! :)

Yes great to see the forum mentioned!! :)

Dan.... Can I have your autograph!

Sounds cool, I'll look forward to seeing it when I get home on Thursday.
I did venture to Northern Ireland earlier today to try and get a copy, the problem is that it's soooo rural around here that of the three newsagents I went to the only choices of vaguely automotive magazines were, Tractors Monthly, Farm Machinery Monthly and Tractor Trader! I kid you not :)

As I mentioned in my write up of the day, I had great fun and did hoon around as much as I could get away with!
I wonder if I'd been a little more precious about the car and maybe kept it out of sport mode all day that the article would have had a different feel to it?

Miles, of course you can :laughing:

As chance would have it, I've just seen both a black GT-s and a black 612 on my way through central London. Juices are definitely flowing now, both stunning in the metal.
