    Yes - what time were you thinking. I’m not planning on getting there too early!

    Sportscars in the Park - Newby Hall 5th May

    I'm going as well. There's 8 or so Massers on the list so a good turn out. Anyone want to meet up beforehand to arrive (and park) together? @MikeyMaser can you bring an Alfa please ;)

    EV car driving phenomenon

    I’ve just got a Polestar and the regen braking does take some getting used to. It is however pretty easy to modulate it although I find myself pulling up shorter than anticipated at junctions etc. The more you lift off the better the range becomes so you do slow down a bit earlier than you would...

    Joining the electric car club

    Test drove a Polestar 2 yesterday - never driven an EV before. It's as quick to 60 as the Strad but the lack of noise is weird and you spend a lot of time looking at the speedo as there's no engine note to give you a clue. Regen braking takes some getting used to as well. But it was comfortable...

    Mc or mc Stradale differences

    If it's 2018, I assume it's a facelift? If so, I don't believe that they made a Stradale version in the sense of the earlier cars. The major difference will be the gearbox as the original Stradales had the semi auto manual gearbox - if yours has a gear lever then it isn't a Stradale. Production...

    Sportsitalia…the end

    Really sorry to hear this @conaero - I know the hard work and dedication you and the team put into building a successful business there. Hope you get something else sorted soon.

    Football!!

    Don't think you'll get much sympathy from elsewhere. Great manager but a bit of a pr!ck.
