    New 296 GTB

    I went to a "launch" event of the 296 GTB at JCT on Saturday (nice event with an orchestra, DJ, light show, food and drink). In the flesh the car looks very sleek, with not too much in the way of fussy holes, vents and spoilers. Despite this it develops 350kg of downforce (at 250kph) which I...

    When 7 year service package isn't a 7 year service package

Imagine my surprise when I was informed that because a few years ago the then owner had sorned the car and had a delayed service...

    Cali T 1k miles in...

    So I've put about 1k miles on the Cali T so far. I absolutely love it. The power is brutal and just keeps going. Its true that you wouldn't really know its a turbo charged engine. It is loud too (I know some think not loud enough), but for me its great. The handling of the thing is amazing too...
