Went to a friend from works house this afternoon for a BBQ. They have a smallish organic farm (bought a couple of steaks and some burgers while we were there).
His wife (who isn't into cars at all) absolutely enthused about the GTA. She loved it, said it looked fantastic, wanted a sit in it - was even impressed at the sound (which isn't something that most people uninterested in cars even notice).

Wish I'd taken my camera actually. They have a beautiful converted barn house, with a gravel courtyard, and Sofia looked superb in those surroundings.
I told Jenny we'd have to buy a similar house in order to park in front of it. Anyone got a million or so pounds they could spare?

Anyway, she was so clearly besotted with the car, it was very nice. Probably the best thing that happened to me today. Oh.. except... what was it? I seem to remember something else good.....

Oh yes, I remember.
