I've had my DNA 360 since the end of Feb and took full advantage of the great weather over the past couple of months and boy has it been gr8.

Everywhere I go, people are always waving, staring, shouting, well you know what I mean being owners yourselves. Drove down to Westminster Abbey in the afternoon after the Royal wedding, crowds everywhere, loads of slow moving traffic. Well the amount of people taking photos and film footage was really crazy. The car must have been the 2nd attraction on that day and when these people go to show their children/grand children the photos of what they captured of the wedding in years to come, they're going to come across a photo of my car and say, cor isn't she beautiful................and of course you as well Kate!  Wink

Special offer:  Grin

This sort of attention is available (free) to all those who go and buy a DNA!  Grin (Provided, of course, that they actually drive it and don't leave it locked up in their garage.  Roll Eyes )

Picked up the Furrari to take up to Newark.  Stoped less than a mile from DNAs place for petrol.  People hanging over the overlooking wall of the petrol station.  Hey is that a real Ferrrai, can we have a look?  That close to DNA. I did say that it was a Toyota in its party dress.  The DNA legend grows.

Dave next door struggling to get his head round the facts that the discs don't do anything and that the engine is Toyota not Ferrari like it says on the engine (cover)

My word this is fun.

Only got the Furrari on the drive preparing a paint snagging list, and 3 people stoped to look.  One stoped while driving past for a look.
Went to get a couple of new wiper blades and it had an audience in the car park.  Couple of lads giving us a thumbs up as we drove past so I waved back.  If only they knew.

Some body else drove past, stopped and reversed back.  This time it was the police.  She didn't ask the right questions and based on if they don't ask I don't tell, she went away thing it was a Ferrari instead of a Furrari.  I did get a class on security precautions, precautions the Furrari already exceeds.

Giving the Furrari it's first polish so it looks good on the DNA stand at Donnington this weekend.  Lost count of the number of Dads and Lads who want their picie taken with the Furrari, which we magnanimously agree to.  They don't seem so interested in the naked MR2 across the road but then it is a year older.

Nice one Paul

Your car holds its own in that Line-up, no problem.

People really don't have a clue, that's what's so great about these cars.
