Great to see it out and about. Shame Gordon doesn't use it that often.

Also everytime I see a photo of a 650S it looks worse to me. Horrible looking thing.

Today, Gordon is present again, car is parked at the main (general) parking area.
I got a call from a friend who is there and he makes some pics

To each their own, but I was just admiring a trio of 650S' last evening and find them far more appealing than the 12C's rather muted styling. I also love the looks of the P1.

I just don't think it fits the style of the rest of the car, but then I never think drastic facelifts on original shapes work.

It's too narrow for that front end to work and the 12C looks less pinched. Haven't seen one in the flesh though so maybe it's just a photo thing. The 12C works so well in real life as well I find, much better than in photos.

The P1 looks amazing mind.

Re: Recap of the English F1 fleet - Take 2...

It was a while ago but I haven't seen this pic of what was on the MTC Boardwalk shared by MSO on twitter



So that'll be #56XPGT, #01R, #20R, #04R and XP1LM

I think they're awful - far too much editing.

Its nice to see the GT get the respect it deserves with a place in the MTC at last, and not stuffed in a shed under a tarpaulin!
