Was travelling back from the Isle of Cheese and in Northampton coming up thru the mad roundabout section there was a convertible XKR behind me.

Now then, I didnt want to race because I had Barry White playing on the in car mp3 widget,but

He comes flying up behind me on the dual carraigeway so we cruise up towards the next roundabout and i drop into second and navigate the roundabout at 40ish with this [Fabrizio Ravanelli lookalike) right up me greddy-pipes, so I floor it out of the roundabout and hit the rev limiter (feck me i didnt know i even had one) and wack it quicklike into third, spooling upto treble miles an hour and this ploink is not keeping up with me??

I took the liberty of checking out performance spex on XKR jags and they are supposed to pull 5.2 to 60!!...

I also paggered a Pulsar too.

Are Zeds *really* this quick?? the bloody thing amazes me!

Most people dont even consider racing me.. do you guys find this too??

I love it! 10 year old Datsun that canes everything on the road.

i raced a xkr the hot one and only managed to leave him in third gear, otherwise i was duly impressed, oh and there is a gtir in my block of flats im keen to have ago with but he keeps avoiding me,

senna this is interesting, my family name originates fromt he isle of white, yet ive never been there nor have my parents of my grandfather, just my two cents

I drove an XKR and it was wickedly fast with fantastic torque but a bit lardy and a real tyre squealing brake cooker if you asked it to do anything les than a straight line. Not as bad as a Dodge Viper though ....

Yeh Warren, what is your surname?

--

AndyP; was not sure of the XKR's potentcy myself and as Warren said, I only got away in Third (2nd to redline was together), surprised me tho!

It dont matter a bean tho, all in all it was eight and a half grands worth of Jap against his old money £65000 Jag.

And if I was him I'd have been a 'trifle miffed'

I'd have smiled at him as I pulled off into the services later on, but he had a face that said "I blow goats", so I didn't

LOL
