No, but I don't drive cars that way anyway. Motorbikes are for going fast :) I do appreciate the engineering but I've no reason or desire to drive a grown up go cart.

I liked the rolls, much more my kind of thing but still not necessary. Increasingly I look at massively overpowered cars on the streets of London and wish people would stop it.

I can understand all these 70's barges coming back to London though, historic tax and ULEZ free is going to be handy until a better option comes along.

I know what you mean.

Before covid on my motorbike ride to work I'd guess at least 1/5 cars on the start of my route were those massive German coupes with V8/similar engines. All so you can sit in traffic.

At least in a RRS or FFRR you can sit in comfort and see over things.

I had a G Wagen for quite a while, loved it, but watching the petrol gauge drop just sat in traffic was sad not just economically but in terms of the environment which I can't stop myself giving a s**t about.
