Though the reporter apparently knows little about the subject (steering wheel just like a f1 car, oh yes JUST like one, except for the size, shape, construction and lack of switches/displays)

Awesome car tho

Indeed, if I find £150k down the back of the sofa I'll be putting in my order straight away.

Just the car for the times, an over priced gas guzzling supercar

The business plan relies on the world being out of recession by the time of launch.

Got to admit it's very pretty.

I really like that, although id say the steering wheel is more honda civic than F1!

bugger, how inconsiderate, I'm gonna have to extend the garage, again

Lovely isn't it. But I'm not sure it's mad enough to take sales away from the competition.

Lambos are more mental, Ferrari's have THE badge in the sector, Porsche if you are dull but rich.

I would have thought they would have picked a different colour to launch it in?

Reminds me a lot of the Phantom Vortex:-




Mike

I like the colour but those alloys look like they came from a rover!

Those Rover alloys from an 827 ?

On the Rover 827 based Phantom ?

Yes, they do look a bit Rovery....
