It’s another case of “ Your designers were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn't stop to think if they should”

Incredibly 8-)

I hope it's bought by somewhere that displays it to the public rather than being placed in a personal collection / penthouse apartment display garage/ man-cave display whatevah.

In saying that it's the type of thing that the Moulsdale Collection near Glasgow would snap up, and that entire set-up appears to be simply a money-spinning tax avoidance scheme for the owner. (Yes I'm still annoyed that they'd agreed to host the Lotus club for an exclusive tour, as long as they got commitment from x members to come along. Less than a week before the date when it was all organised, they doubled the attendee requirement, and doubled their entry price too..... so it didn't go ahead :roll: ).

It spun the wheels up at 170, so you decided to drop down to 2nd and stamp on the peddle. Clever

Ireland’s new “Pause before you post” campaign. Very clever and unfortunately necessary in today’s social media obsessed world…

Be interesting to see a comparison with something similar and also more pedestrian. What is the cost of running an M3 Comp? But, a lot of money.

I imagine that’s still less than hiring something pretty standard like a M2 for a lap. And that’s before you get the fancy insurance etc
