she doesnt drive yet she sits in the passenger seat of the D5 and criticises

it is a small car inside compaired to a V70 its old school car with a small dash so the windscreen feels very close to you most "modern" cars have huge dash boards with the base of the windscreen miles away and you can only fit 4 people in it

Ah, that's a P1 thing. Though the windscreen angle is slightly different (between the V70 and C70 at least, the V70 is slightly more vertical, with the C70 being slightly more "laid back"), the distance the base of the screen is away from you is very similar. So much so I don't notice the difference between my bro's V70R and my C70.

As for it only fitting 4 people, it fits 4 people in perfect comfort, they could easily have had the fifth in the middle, but that's not a coupe is it? I can happily fit in the back at 6'2", so as far as I'm concerned it's big enough on the inside. Try the same in a coupe that really is small on the inside, like a Puma for example. Crushed knees and a head permanently at an angle to fit the side of the roof line.

If you don't spank this T5 Coupe around CC next year then I will make you a promise   your oil burner if on track will get a nudge

Exocet ur fighting woman logic here so uve already lost lol

And il be spanking it to the best of my ability round combe and if the D5 does get a deliberate nudge it would be a shame as id rather not have to stalk u and set fire to ur jag........

You're right, it's a waste of time isn't it


You know, the more I think of it the more I think I should have been interested in this - At a grand you can't complain if you bend it, and you can strip it out and make it purely track oriented, plus it means I could keep mine in good nick and not worry about damaging it or ruining it by stripping/rollcage etc.

Oh well, hindsight eh?

Too late

Undecided how far im going to go With it tbh doubt il do a roll cage as i dont want ins companies throwing a wobbler, might keep the back seats as u can fit 4 people in so seams a shame to waste the space and i cant see em being that heavy tbh

The seat base is light, it comes out by grabbing the front edge and tugging sharply upwards, that it
