Finally....

Picked up the new GT86 this morning and put 270 miles on it, 60 on the motorway the rest on twisty coastal roads along one of arguably the best roads in the world, Northern Ireland's A2 Antrim Coast scenic route. If you ever come here on holiday you HAVE to take this drive in a rental.



Downside, my right arm is sore, just not used to the driving position, totally different from my previous car, not helped by first drive nerves. Wheel a bit too far from the door armrest to relax my arm on it. I'm sure I'll get used to it in a day or two.

Boy is it playful. I was keeping everything sensible and sedate, but it still wanted to play every time there was a roundabout and there are a LOT of roundabouts in this country.
