Vee in the lakes yesterday

[ColinG]

Had a 200+ mile schlep down to Windermere yesterday, then headed back north using as little motorway as possible, and came across a simply epic road between Orton and Appleby right up on the moors.. I was in my element horking the Vee along, feeling the weight shuffle around over crests and exploiting the perfect visibility of the road ahead! One of the best drives I've ever had in the v6

 

[Richyy182]

Very jealous - cracking V6

 

[Djw John]

You've used it?! Like out on the road? I call photoshop

 

[Lawro]

That's awesome.

 

[Knuckles]

[Dan...]

Awesome!

Lol made sure there were no puddles so I didn't get caught out on the reflection

 

[Adamm.]

Looks lovely mate both the road and the car.

​Ah cunning, very cunning.

 

[Scott™]

Very nice sir.

 

[ColinG]

Forgot to say, Windermere is the place to spot nice cars! In the space of 2 hours I saw...

Lotus Carlton
Ferrari 458 in white
New Maserati coupe (the track focused one with half cage etc)
R8 v8 coupe
R8 v10 spyder
Renault Avantime (epic)
Jaguar F type
Countless Focus RS

Clio did well though, was in a cafe having tea and people were taking pics as they walked past

 

[Gaz85]

looks great as ever much want!

 

[Willliams]

Not bad

 

[Ali]

Not bad! If it was Illiad it would be better; naturally!

 

[Mr Plums]

I want it, that or a liquid yellow one please

 

[Willliams]

If it was Illiad, it'd be accompanied by a dozen other Illiads.

Sure...because ID owners are too scared to come out and play!

 

[Darren S]

You went the wrong way. Why head south, when you should have gone north?

​D.

Oh contraire.. my skirt wearing friend... Coming down to join us a the Montlhery meet later in the year?

 

[cazzy]

nice very nice

Only an illiad owner could possibly say this, it's like an inferiority complex or something

 

[Matt W]

Looks epic. How does it compare to the 1 series?

Completely chalk and cheese mate. The BM handles better, is more comfortable, refined, better on fuel, in a different league in terms of performance, has an epic sound system and I can do all this with 4 mates in the car.

The Clio is raw, sounds insane, rattles and can get twitchy when pushed, but I absolutely LOVE it! I predict it will be still parked in my garage long after the BM is replaced with something else

 

[w33 brl]

Love a Vee, would have a mars over Illiad any day

 

[Blacky950]

Looks awesome, still haven't seen it though good roads as well round there!

 

[Craig.]

Such a nice looking car colin, my perfect Vee

 

[couzens]

Looks alright I guess.
