hi greg

thanks mate :)

Always wanted an SC but can't cope with the mpg, I've come from a diesel and it's bad enough with a hybrid lol

[thelexusman]

well am used to a v8 or 2.5 twin turbo soarer so no problem to me

but for a heavy car and 4.3 v8 it will do 30mpg on a run which is good

Yeah the GS will do 40 but the diesel used to do nearer 60, which was wicked on a long run but then again it used to do 0-60 in 10 secs as opposed to 5.9 = big smiles :D

yep its one or the other i guess

power or mpg,but saying that these new diesel engines are very good and very quick

but you will never get that v8 feel

Yeah some of the new audi's are looking really fast and efficient, but you're right nowt like a V8. My dad has the 5ltr V8 600h and that sounds epic, too big for me, I'm happy with my 3.5 V6
