He's just a kid for Christ's sake!

He got rid of the f type because he couldn't see traffic lights when at a standstill!

That's how credible he isn't.

Along the same vain as Clarkson saying that at no time did he feel he needed more power than a V6 in the F type... πŸ˜†

Most reviews mention the RWD R is a bit of a handful on anything like cold or wet roads....AWD makes sense for knowing its there as a safety net. Not been able to spin the back wheels so far but have only driven with TC on.


.. I am experiencing the same problems with traffic lights, but it's only minor when you have the glass roof. (I am 6'6" tall)
