Fastest milk cart in the west

[Wo-Wo]

So I know you'll be thinking "what's that doing on here" but with Becs permission I thought I'd share some images of my new milk float:-




So ok not quite but close:-




Not much detailing done this weekend but it will be getting the usual treatment by the end of the month.

WOW! I think the i8 is a stunning piece of design and that just looks incredible!

Don't care it's not a Golf or even VAG, we need more pics of this beast Neil!

Cheers Dan, I've done the inside just cos dealers always do a rubbish job of glass etc. And a quick APC over the trim.

Plan is next Friday get it cleaned and in the garage, the roof could do with a light pass over with the DA and then a couple of layers of Swissvax.

Neil, what can I say other than to add to seabrook's wow? So, WOW!!

I love the i8, I think in design terms it is a huge leap forward but whereas cars in the past (like the Sierra, XJS) that did the same, they weren't appreciated for years whereas the i8 looked magnificent from day one. I think BMW were brave, shame VW/Audi can't be so bold.

I'm not jealous at all

Possibly not particularly high on your list of priorities but it'd be interesting to see it's real world economy compared to the testing data.

But bu**er that, what does it drive like?

Following this with interest, looks class Neil. Can't wait to see more pics.

Will you do a bit of a write up in a few weeks?

Oi! Ernie! What's this doing in here!

Only joking.

Beautiful, beautiful Neil.    Stupid question, but are you pleased with it?  Can't wait to see more of the i8 once the detailing has begun!

Thanks All

First impressions:-

Not as quick in terms of kick down as the M4 but I'd imagine that the i8 would murder the M4 off the mark.
Great on fuel and the way that it switches between motors is flawless. MPG is around 40 at the moment but then I do drive a granny!

Oddities:-

If you have the seat all the way down and back the Head Up Display becomes impossible to see so I've disconnected that! 
The comfort pack includes keyless functionality but to fold the mirrors in you have to press and hold the close button thus negating any keyless features?!?!?!

Sound:-

Awesome when under load and like a spaceship when driving slowly!

Summary:-

Totally amazing car and a real head turner. Getting in and out takes some getting used to and I think APC is going to my new best friend on the passengers side as the sills are huge to get over.

I'll post more pics etc when I give it the full WoWo treatment. The paint is pretty good so should be able to avoid a decontamination detail but the roof needs some love.

Bet you cant steel it like a milk float and crash it into the playground behind the flats (I was 7 at the time)
Awesome car I have a real liking for BMW sport coupes, my fav is the 80's 635CSi followed by my mates 850CSi (M8) so I am not jealous of you at all much.

That's a very nice car Wo-wo or should that be woohoo
