I think I speak for all white V8 owners when I say SOOT!

Nice sparking clean car taken for a wee drive, then when you get out and look at the back...DOH!

I love the start. It says " let's go ..."

I don't like the impracticality.

Went to a restaurant 2 weeks ago. Steep driveway.
I was driving my honda and I thought "thank God u didn't bring the f type "

It's way too low with a long front overhang

Nevertheless I love it !

Perhaps there should be a choice of ‘quiet or loud’ for those with an aural preference! Maybe it’s quieter on newer models???

Couple of other annoying things for me are the seat belt buckles, it’s not always easy to find them when you get into the car and the sun visors are far too small.....

On a positive note visually it’s a work of art!!! 😉
Seat belt issue. Easily solved. When you get out vehicle just leave belt draped over side bolster. It’s there every time when you get back in 👍

The way residual water drips down from the mirrors onto the doors after I’ve dried the car bugs me.

We have that in common, too! ;)
I also now know about the filler cap holder - used it for the first time today

I quite agree with this. Funnily enough, my wife I Pace keeps its wheel really clean, and she's a heavier baker than me.
