Your impression of the differences between the two cars would be most interesting @Geoff Crispin 
Congratulations Geoff. Look forward to seeing some pics of your new toy.
Top job
I can’t believe that you would prefer a 3lt Sport over a 1.9lt M44.
Other than speed, acceleration, performance, handling, and loads of extras
Me Jealous ??

I will post up some pics but wont get it home till next Sunday my son should pick it up any time now if he has had enough spinach Haha Geoff
I wont pick the car up from my sons but he has been in my 1.9 and went in the 3 to day and said it went like s h 1 t of a shovel GeoffYour impression of the differences between the two cars would be most interesting @Geoff Crispin
Boy does it go It’s like SH1 T off a shovel. My sons souped up Beetle did a recorded speed of 0 to 60 in a fraction over 4 seconds and I put my foot down on M11 on a straight and before I could blink(so to speak) was doing over 100 son felt it nearly matches his BeetleI can’t believe that you would prefer a 3lt Sport over a 1.9lt M44.

4/5 hour drive back to Somerset should be interesting
Geoff
By the sound of it, you'll do it in 2/3 !!!!
You've got yourself a great car Geoff. They are a lot of fun in the wrong hands.
Enjoy watch out for those safety camera's and the fuel gauge. 
In Somerset they have been turned off but not near my son in Elnesham to Buckhurst hill.
Yes the petrol does go down a bit quicker but not to bad if you don't put your foot to the floor when pulling away or overtaking. It will be our second car for as and when needed and outings like the red Z which after going to Silverstone needs a clean
