Vtec round roundabout !!
Just did it in second gear and scared the life outta me!!!! Snaked for about 20 yards and left half my tyres behind !!! 
Still managed to completely leave the TT that was trying to catch me up, so it was worth it !!

Slightly off topic: One thing that confuses me is how owners talk about getting used to the handling over a long period of time. I'm used to 4WD, but the handling of the S inspired me to give it some stick from the start more or less.

I have had my car for 5 months and I am now fairly used to the 'on the limit handling'.
I am starting to put the back out, taking some corners at speed that I never thought possible, and really just loving the S's handling charateristics.
The only downside is that I only have 3mm on the rears and 4mm on the fronts after 9k
