    I've arranged to collect the car a week today, Sat 11th. Could be a good start to my birthday week

    It's booked in to McLaren to replace the suspension arms on Tuesday, they'll change the brake pads after that, then should all be good to go. I've arranged insurance (~£850 for the year), and checked the trains to get to St Albans to pick it up. Weather forecast is around the 0-10 degrees C range, hopefully they won't be salting the roads, and since the car's already on Michelin PS4S tyres it'll probably have ok grip in the daytime temps.


    Thanks for all the shared excitement I'll look forward to getting some driving impressions and better photos as the weather and time permit.

    Maybe you should fly over there and have a photo shoot of his new ride and all eh... ribs, steaks, waffles?

    The dude is married, so probably can't take photos as good as you.

    Well, the dealer haven't managed to get the car back and get the brake pads changed, so collection has been postponed to Wednesday 15th.

    McLaren Hatfield have now decided the suspension arms are fine and don't need changing. Anyway as long as I can put a warranty on the car, it shouldn't matter to me. Certainly when I test drove the car I didn't hear or feel anything.

    Aw man! They're such a tease... was so looking forward to it dethroning Kchrpm's Corvette as the fastest GTXF car, but I guess we'll have to wait a bit longer.
