I'd be amazed if anyone has done enough miles in an 04 to have had need to find out yet, Pete!

Inspired by CC's list - I was thinking punctures............

I got my first one after ten days! Fortunately only a tenner to fix.

"Would you please continue the petty bickering? I find it most intruiging."

I watched that Top Gear review again the other night. The Z4, Boxster and S2000 on the Isle of Men.
Really good fun that was.

But the Stig made a right mess of the lap in the S2 and it was still only .4 secs behind.

to be honest I wonder what fuel loads all the cars were running.....judging by the gap in the rear wheel arch I'd say the S2000 was running with a full fuel load

I think the S2000 was also running on 95RON and not Optimax, that must be worth 2 seconds at least...
