And your other car is?

Reason why I'm asking is, as you know i got a new Z4 the other week and pretty uch have only driven my RRS once in 3 weeks. Last Sunday went to a meet in Hampshire, with about 40 other cars and had a good 3 hour blast thru the countryside...all types of cars from GTR's, Porsche GT3's, to MX5's and Clios....speeds up to what you can't imagine on twisty A/B roads. There is another 100 car event in Essex this Sunday.....not really suited for a RRS (S/C perhaps) but come along or at least put your name on the reserve list if you fancy it

Do any of you have other cars in other forums? I use the Pistonheads forum for meets etc.

It does make you appreciate the RRS so much more when you drive it afterwards - such an easy car to drive

United Kingdom 2010 Range Rover Sport TDV8 HSE Zermatt Silver

I've got a Mk2 Ford Focus RS that I keep for sunny Sunday blasts. It's an amazing car and puts a smile on my face every time I drive it. It's great to have two such totally different cars, and each is good in its own way. I'm a member of the Ford RS Owners' Club and use their forum all the time. Also attend a few driving events in the Focus, but not quite on the scale you describe. I can recommend Classic Car Tours - http://www.cctmk.co.uk/ 14.5MY SDV6 HSE Dynamic Indus silver/lunar/ebony 20" wheels, InControl, full-size spare, electric tow bar, adaptive xenons, adaptive cruise control, auto main beam assist. Gone: TDV8 HSE; Zermatt silver/ebony, 19" off road alloys, active diff, particle filter, tow pack (it was fun) BMW 730D SE (great car, sadly missed). Ford Focus RS mk2, Ultimate green, lux pack 2, bluetooth. The start of my mid-life crisis.
IN THE GARAGE: BMW i8 - the mid-life crisis continues and it's great fun.

In my quest for another car, looked at the R8 Spyder, doesn't the front end look so short compared to the back end? Granted no engine there, but...

How was Sharm mate?

Alex - Ignore that last one. The background looks like a farm that a friend lived on in Rattery, however he's now confirmed that it looks the same but isn't!!

Regardless I love the R8 Spyder, especially in white Cool

Sharm was great......found it was more of a couples place than a lads holiday but enjoyed it none the less. Quad biking through the desert a highlight and swimming with dolphins Thumbs Up

I'm loving my Z4 actually, on fact it one of the nicest, most complete cars I've owned. Does almost everything so well. Amazing dual clutch gearbox. And in White it's stunning.

Thinking of replacing the RRS with a Panamera though
