More than that - plus you gain in terms of MPG

Yeah, that was the discussion I was involved in (from an entirely non-technical perspective). Scanning over it, didn't see anything on that page relating to the power lost by the GT however.

Don't get me wrong, with the current fuel prices I may well run mine on super. Just not entirely sure if the benefits are genuinely noticeable or largely perceived by the normal driver.

Thanks for your comments guys.

OK, to answer your questions.

Colour choice I am 100% happy with. The black roof looks amazing with the Comp Orange.

Stuart did not fill it with fuel.

Book says 95 or above for fuel. I am undecided and need to do some research to decided what to use. I intend keeping the car for a long time so what is best for the long term health of the engine is what I will use.

Number plates are just stuck on front and rear at the moment. I did not want the black number plate mounts used until I had seen the car. The rear plate I am going to leave stuck in place. I want to make a bracket to mount the front plate below the front bumper...sort of at the level of the lower grill. I am worried that may restrict some cooling so I may replace the lower grill first, with a stainless mesh grill

Did you stick the plates on, or did Stuart?

Hope to lick mine up next weekend, but don't know if I need to take some stuff for the license plates (if I don't want the black plastic) or if they have it there....

I'm going to assume that it's down to the flash but that rear quarter marker isn't lit up is it?
Yes, must be.
I have been tearing me hair out trying to upload pics. Now I have sorted out I have realised that I have hardly taken any good ones!!
Will get trigger happy tomorrow.
