      I'd love a Turbo S as much as you, but I'm not parting with £150k on a car that can only legally do 34% of its top speed. Granted, I wouldn't be done by a speed camera because I'd be out of frame but meh.

        1) You can now get it for a lot less - prices dropped big time

        2) top speed is irrelevant - handling and acceleration is great even on 40 mph roads

          Deary me...I'm still on winter tyres and still managed to hit 145mph on the way to work today, legally... Saturday sees the return of summer tyres and back to the 'piss off Porsche driver' speeds Actually, even here its getting too difficult to get a high speed due to the amount of traffic and idiot Audi drivers

            For the Uk where the average speed across most roads including many motorways like the M25 is under 40 mph, the best car for fun is the MX5.
            If you lived inDeutschland then you could use a fast car.
            Hard Brexit now!

                  Yes but you're breaking the law, lucky you're not in the USA as you would have been beaten up and then shot by now

                    He is Russian. They will shoot him first and then beat him.
