I don't want to know - I'm picking up my UK turbo (admittedly with PPP and PDEP) from there on saturday.

How much are P1s then?

Question

Saw a P1 parked round the back there this morning. It had a price tag on it which suggests it's for sale (new). The sales folks weren't in yet so didn't speak to them. I thought perhaps it's their demo car. Anyone been in it?

Looks awesome, BTW.

Fosters, is yours a DBM with Prodrive backbox? There was one of those there as well. Looked nice.

if DBM = Dark Blue Mica?, then yes - it should've had 17" gold rims from prodrive, so if not, then I'll have words to say!

It's being fitted with a tracker today and an alpine ice tommorrow morning

I do regret not going for the big rear wing though. Still, brakes will be the next upgrade...

Yes - DBM = dark Blue Mica. As I recall it did have the Prodrive wheels, or anyway they had some Prodrive 17"'s in boxes.

I drove the P1 today at 3pm for half an hour. I bought my car from there before Xmas.

I drove the EVO VI recently as well and the P1 is a much better car, it is beautiful to drive and effortless on bends, the steering is amazing. I found the EVO a little stiff and unforgiving and the P1 felt faster.

I also drove a prodrive modified car today - engine and suspension - however it was after the P1 and as you can imagine it was a little disappointing. The prodrive car was meant to be 240 bhp - it felt a lot more and was still a beatifully balanced car, but a lot looser than the P1.

So, yes the P1 was absolutely awesome.
