I turned TC off, once, and even on my little V6 Auto ... I got a fright :-(
It's bad enough going round a roundabout with TC on.
Never again!
Well, not until the lowering springs and sway bars are in :-)

Nice find....looks like some of the first production models off the line...the little "GM" badge down by the rocker panels. Cheers, and enjoy

Tension, apprehension and excitement all rolled in to one. Word of advice, don't listen to James (redleader) or you may as well have saved money and bought a Veyron !

5 minutes before reading your post I had a call from my dealer .... MV F3 is off the boat so I'm sharing your emotions also. Hopefully this week for collection.

Love the way they've done the exhaust on the MV F3. Nice to see something other than a massive can on the side.

Loved the under seats when they came out but the F3 pipes look (and sound) sweet. Terrific performance when I test rode and so nimble and light compared to my F4 which is getting traded in.

Off subject, how to you take the automatic shift option off? when it tells you to change from 1st to 4th, you cant change to any other gear for a couple seconds unless you change to 4th

You can buy fairly reasonably priced skip shift eliminator programmes from a couple of American tuning companies at least. If you go back to the main forum, and type in the search for "skip shift eliminators" there are a number of threads on the issue, which seems to cheese off a lot of people.

Hey congratulations, I saw that SS in the Aston garage, I keep looking to make sure I didn't get ripped off.

I noticed some of your age's. Am I the baby of the forum? I'm 32.
