Kudos to whoever cleaned @MikeHunt's car, that is some shine 8-)
Gavin, maybe I do need the details of your/Dan’s valeter 😄

That yellow looks slightly golden in the photos but I think it looks even better in person. Really love how you have the car.

It wouldn’t have surprised me 🤣 and I don’t mind - it’s literally the Italian Tune-up ! I’m not precious about the car.

I took JonMad for a ride in it a while back and he asked if the F1 gearbox automatically upshifts at the limiter. So we checked.

Love the CSL btw, somehow I always forget that you have it.

Very slightly different colour to yours though, isn't it? Can't quite tell because one looks like they've made the effort ;)

Great to see you all earlier, had a really fun day out, nice to see some faces behind the usernames I've known for decades :)

It was really funny driving up the B660 because there were a few cars spaced out ahead of me. I could tell when the 40mph limit changed to NSL, even if it was out of sight, because of Dunc's exhaust, then GGs as they hoofed it. Obviously I wanted to do a public service and ensure you all had a chance to hear what a Ferrari 360 sounds like doing the same 8-) thanks to @Sundayjumper for the loan!

I did a little walkaround with the camera while at C&M too:

I love how it ends with you almost being run over by a Skoda Roomster!

Thanks everyone so much for coming. I had a great time, and am still buzzing. We must do more!

Yep the colour is great. A yellow alpine came in after and I thought how flat and cheap the colour looked compared to the Elise.
