Hi everyone, this is my first post on here. I've had my R53 for six days now and I can honestly say,it's definitely put the fun back into driving for me !! The first 5 minutes drive home from collecting it and I was hooked. I'm not driving anything else ! I had my first decent drive in it today from Gorebridge to Innerleithen,did a bit of mountain biking then headed to my parents house at Selkirk to get the old man's seal of approval lol ! then back up the A7 to Gorebridge. When it's wound up every gearchange is a joy ! I haven't had this much fun in a road car since I was running tuned mk1 Fiestas and classic minis a lot of years ago. Apart from a Direnza exhaust that's going on this week,I'm planning on leaving it standard as it's totally unmolested and in really good nick apart from some paintwork. I work in a body shop so getting the paintwork up to scratch is no problem. The only problem I do have is trying to pack all my gear for mountain biking in that bit they call a boot !
