Jaguar XK8s ...
... don't corner very well.
Nice in a straight line, but she ran out of straight lines just as I
caught up. Lots of twisties, three traffic islands, a turn, a short
piece of dual carriageway and then a straight BLATT!
Nice looking girl. 30-ish, brilliant blond hair, beautiful teeth and
a kind of 'surprised' expression. She was working quite hard and
seemed to be enjoying it. But F600's tyres were warm and the weight
just right. I've often thought of the Torsen ur-quattro as the most
'chuckable' car, but it's actually the most 'landable' car. You can
chuck anything - it's what happens when you land that matters.
Real fun, and over much too soon.
Bit daunting from behind, the XK8.
