Welcome to the madhouse by the way.

Hello from a Leicester Briskodian. Think you should come to Leicester to run your car in. Home of multi-culturism, a few nice parks, pretty good shops and an ABYSMAL traffic management system which seems designed to cause congestion. Allow a week for your journey!

Got the car today, first impressions - very swift with a good combination of handling and ride. The seats really hold you in well around the bends
