2008 model year
#11
My understanding of 2008 changes are as follows:
Spring rates are upped by 7% on front and 9% on rear. Dampers stiffened by 10% front and 5%rear. front rollbar goes from 26.5 by 4.5 to 27.2 by 5.3 and rear bar stays the same. Wheels go from 10 spoke to (the lighter) 5 spoke design as shown in pictures above.
Not sure whether the revised fuel and temp gauge (bar style to match rev counter) made it for Europe.
Nuerburgring, Silverstone, RNBP, Burgundy and Imola all dropped for 2008. Synchro silver added.
Both the Blue and the brown interiors dropped for 2008
I did not like the 2008, so have gone for a 2007 MY Deep Burgundy, which I pick up on March 1st with an 08 plate. Can't wait!

Do any car manufacturer's marketing departments have a sense of adventure when it comes to colour... or their customers for that matter?

Is IOP still available on 08 cars? I've had a look at the FAQ's and it would appear to be available but my local dealer says its not. He was trying to sell me a black one which I was not interested in but might consider a new IOP one.

Launched today at Brands hatch. I cannot find any media coverage of the event yet, apart from this:

Anyone seen anymore?
I think it goes on over a few days, lots of other stuff there too.
