Saw you this morning I think Jon.

I was in my wife's Coupe in Dunblane, your car looks very clean.

You picked up the Coupe already John ... As good as you expected ?

Great to drive and the cockpit feels a lovely place to be, I love the low and enclosed feeling of the roofline.

Don't like the steering's straight ahead feel compared to my old R53, but I guess that's just a trait of electric power steering compared to the electric / hydraulic system of the older model. The sport button helps it a bit.

Yep it was me! Didn't realise you had a coupe but I did notice the car, Very nice , like the colour, my son was amused by the two dogs in the back!

Yeah, the Coupe is a new edition. I've still got my R53, but the dogs fit better in the Coupe. There was actually another tucked under the parcel shelf too.

Your R53 looks cracking, I hope you're enjoying it.

Very good Thanks, really enjoying R53, gets cleaned once at weekend and sits at airport all week, always a welcome sight when I get back home. May refurb all wheels next as a few marks on each.

I loved that on the RCZ ... the MCS feels quite open, it's good job I picked the black roofline otherwise the beige might have made it feel like a people carrier!!

I agree with your roof lining thoughts, I much prefer our black interior.
