Hi guys.. forgot to mention when i was down bristol collecting my gearbox tony took me out in his G for a ride & testdrive .. When tony was driving he took a sharp a turn of his lane and we went across a big field and the back end was spinning up @ 50 mph felt aswome  .. has any one else on here had the privilege ?

you've described tony's G just about spot on....!!

a 460 with the right engine is so rewarding to drive,its an experience you must live to tell the tale.

if my cabrio spins the 37 mudzillas, i hate think how long tonys tires will last !!
