I have to admit, I was really impressed with it! It's a demo in white with no extras and 7K on the clock. Took it for a nice long drive round Nottingham and on the motorway with some back roads thrown in for measure. I wanted to get an overall feel of what this car would be like to live with from day to day. Must say that the power difference between the racing and the 150THP is very noticeable. Constant turbo whine which worried me to be honest as I am unsure if this is a normal characteristic of the car. Seems to hold the road pretty well too and seems capable of doing almost anything you want it to.
The downside for me sadly. As wonderfull as the seats are a found my back hurting after 15 minutes for some reason, not sure if it was just the wrong sitting possition or not. Seemed to suffer the same hesitation that another owner has experienced on here, or it's just turbo lag and I am not used to it. The aux socket and 12V socket are not really in the best positions and if using a sat nav I believe the charger may become an issue. I was so sure I wanted a white one but after seeing it in the flesh i think the black would be the way to go as the white did not evoke the same response in me as the black did. I am sorry to say that the radio unit is a massive let down as it looks cheap compared to the rest of the feel of the car. Sound system is amazing though!
I know many will not agree with me on here but I am merely giving my thoughts on it. So regrettably I have decided not to get the white one and will hang on to the bocanegra for a while longer even though I have lost all faith in that car too with all the misfire issues I have been experiencing. I think I may wait a little while longer and if luck goes my way will get a black one if it comes to market at the right price.
