Woppum Posted July 10, 2004 Report Share Posted July 10, 2004 My brother had one for a week, one of the first ones, and decided it wasnt as nice as he thought (preferred his vanquish) so he sold it for 5k profit. He later swapped the Vanquish in for the DB9 and loves it. Possibly a long term cruiser than bit of fun?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GCab Posted July 11, 2004 Report Share Posted July 11, 2004 [ QUOTE ] Possibly a long term cruiser [/ QUOTE ] Think it needs to go more than 50 miles between fill-ups, for that . I read somewhere that Goodyear (?) or whoever makes the tyres, went to great lengths to make them capable of running at 180mph for 45 minutes without interruption (at which speed they get up to 80-90 degrees C or something): but the things is, the car itself runs out of fuel long before, so you'd have to refuel the damn thing by air to actually push the tyres that much...
