Stunning!!!!!!!
Looked at at those a few times but alas I need back seats, flipping kids.....
Looks awesome!! My greatest sadness is that I don't fit into any Lambo, tried the Huracan the other day and my head is squished against the roof........

Loads of headroom in the coupe.I'm 6' with no problem.Spyder with roof up obviously might be a different proposition.
Sadly not for me, also don't fit into almost all Ferrari's. I am only 6ft2 but have short legs and a really long torso, knackers me with a lot of super cars........

My Dad is a lanky streak of piss just like myself, about 20 years ago he bought a Ferrari 456 GTA, plenty of room in that thing but boy was it an awful car!

On hire this week and picked it up this morning. Red lines at 6.5 thousand and hits 70 mph in second gear. Its only a Corsa. Shame I have to give it back..........................
Sold the VW T5 for a more practical car. The single side entrance on the van did not work with twin girls and their big car seats

Just got one of these to replace the Wife's GTD. Not the fastest but a great chassis.....this has the extra 10hp, bigger brakes and LSD. Great fun.

Is that from the last generation of Mercedes that will look better and better as they age? Possibly the SL will, but I can't see any of the saloon designs aging well.
Picked this up a couple of weeks back; my first foray into the 4x4 market but an impending arrival warrants it. Very happy so far although nowhere near the grunt of the outgoing Audi A3 - very noticeable but expected. These are the pics from when i went to pick it up from the dealers, and the car was filthy as i specifically asked them not to clean it (much to the managers horror) but it's going in for the full detail treatment on Wednesday so i'm looking forward to seeing the final outcome.
New XC90 on order, hoping it arrives before the road tax changes at the beginning of April!
I'm just waiting for the ordering process to go through and I hope to be driving one of these by May! I'll finally be able to say FU to OPEC!!
Love the look of the new Tiguan. My ASX is going well. I am waiting for heavy snow and treacherous conditions to try the two 4wd modes with my proper all season tyres, then will sell it and get a hybrid of some sort.
What a lovely day today, so what better than to clean the "weekend" car and take a few pictures. I did get a few odd looks at each car park I stopped out to take pictures.
Picked this up during the week
Just as a counter to most of you here, mine is a 14 year old S40 Volvo 1.9 diesel. Still running great to be fair and I will not be changing it until it goes pop!
I love my cars, sado car freak I am! I swapped a 981 Cayman for an Audi A6 allroad a couple of months ago and I'm really loving the total change.

How are you finding it?
I've been THIS close a few times over the last couple of years.
I find most current cars dull as ditch water, but I do like the XF.
I just worry I'm going to find it too big, fat and lazy when I have to drive it every day...
I don't want a diesel or an automatic, but I keep coming back to the XF 3.0S! (In the real world a 5 litre XFR isn't an option)

PS Although I'm going to win the Euromillions tonight, so I'll post photos of my F40 on Monday
I am not sure it's a particularly sporty drive (though I have only really driven it at rush hour so far), and I am noticing the lag - from a standing start, it's a bit sluggish for the first bit. It's a few years since I last owned a diesel, so it's hard to tell if it's this engine, or if it's just cos I came from a GS300 with a very smooth petrol engine.
Looks wise, there was little else I was interested in and it's pretty well specced.
I am going for a longer spin tomorrow so will play around with the flappy paddles and sport mode.
I had a very similar thinking process and eventually went with the XF 5L petrol - naturally aspirated. Puts a smile on my face everytime - and you don't get any unwanted attention. Comfort cruiser one second but a bit of a tweak of the accelerater and you have massive power on tap.

Loving my Brand new XC90 already! Only picked it up today but thoroughly enjoyed my drive home. Mainly motorway but got to try out the adaptive cruise control with the Pilot assist, wow!! Never had a more relaxing drive. It's such a brilliant system. Semi Autonomous driving. Hand obviously on the wheel still but the tech was fab and made a mundane journey a lot of fun.
Couple of quick shots from when I got home:
Lovely xc90. I love these. I've decided I'm going to get the new model xc60 next and can't wait already!
I love my XC90, got it at the beginning of the year and still enjoy driving it every time.
Love the XC90, such a great looking car. The XC60 Is on the shortlist for our next car.
