Swami, while you're test driving that, take a run at the forfour brabus too. You won't be sorry :thumbsup:

Will do Chris, I had a look at them after you mentioned it- you were right about the chunky steering wheel!

I want to see one in the metal as they look like they could be a bit bland but I'll reserve judgment til I've soaked one up properly. My only other doubt was their economy, if I am going slower than the current beast I want it to save me significant money. The other side of that coin though is it must be lightning fast with a 0-60 of 6.9!

A chap at work has one, looks great and is pretty quick with decent handling.. however; the gearchange is woeful. I took it for a spin and was loving it from the moment I turned the key to the point where I realised it wouldn't change gear any quicker! God knows how you'd confidently overtake anything..

I am quite tempted to get one as a project though, would make a great EV conversion!
