on....

If they didn't have that gearstick in the dash (do not like that myself) Oh and I didn't get supported by the seats (must eat more pies )

Great car, lucky her!

I test drove a CTR and didn't like it much. It's too revvy and not torquey enough, and seems to be prone to dreadful wheelspin at exactly the moment you don't want it. You need a gentle right foot - not exactly the point of having a high-revving engine, is it?

I like them

THEY'RE A BIT FLIPPIN' NOISY, THOUGH!!!!

At first she didnt like the noise said it sound like it was going to brake then she started to love it

oh and what is even more annoying is she is only going to pay

too harsh a ride for my liking now though.
