What’s sad about it, they will ditch the naturally aspirated engine amd use turbos like everyone else... those beautiful exhaust sounds will be gone

Aye but AMG make a big turbo car sound good and Aston have taken the AMG engine and made it sound good so don’t be too sure about that. 

Nice. If they produce an lc-f that could be my car after the rc-f. It is a stunning bit of kit.

Red does look good with the carbon...

Think they just struggle to sell them much like they do with all f cars. 

Folk are just VERY bought in to the m4 and c63 cars and the rcf doesn’t get a look in. Looked just now and the rcf is only 340lbs heavier than the dct m4. That’s nothing in cars these sizes. Also the m4 and c63 are more tunable so while they can’t lay down the power at all its bragging rights with hp stats.

Non carbon with low miles are in budget. Just need the carbon cars to come down a touch now and in white or blue please car gods!

@Stuno1 Stu @Tfp is most certainly your man....... just one thing when you see his RcF you will drool over it in an uncontrollable manner.....🤓

Aye, that is expected and will make us both uncomfortable! I have not seen one for 3 years so just need to reaffirm my desire to own one.

Ah ok that’s not too bad at all. Let’s see and if not would be great to arrange a time to meet 👍

Well done to all those that attended! Far too often a meet is arranged well in advance and people pull out last minute, especially when there is poor weather.

Well done that blue is stunning. Surprised the audio is only ok? Loved my ML in my isf. Good to hear it’s in such good condition as well. 

Keen to have a good poke about with one outside of a dealer if anyone is near by. There is a cup of tea/beer in it for someone!

White exterior and red interior is one of my favourite. Just needs carbon pack.

Cheers Stuart!

Spoilt for choice now!!

No worries. I spent a long time looking at travel systems and the Jané for us offered more than all the others out there as a package, especially when you buy the swivel base Isofix as well. 

My daughter was in our Jane car seat on an iso fix that goes with the buggy/travel system. Easy to use as cliped in and out of the buggy straight into the iso fix. Isofix base swivels as well which is VERY useful for ease of moving between car and buggy.

Congratulations 🤗

It’s a great colour combo. My second favourite after the white carbon. 

More aerodynamic. Definitely lighter and imagine laying down the power with all those tyres. 

Driving around today I found my perfect rcf...

I’m officially bored, well maybe bored is the wrong word to use. 

Don’t get me wrong, the ISF is a great all rounder and a wonderful daily but it’s doesn't excite me like the Alfa did.

Looks like I’ll be advertising it for sale soon.

Haha! It’s not an exciting car chap. It’s a compromise like all performance saloons. If you want weekend fun you need to get a coupe or a sports car with rear seats if you have a nipper like a 911 or an Evora.

Looks awful. It needs to have the same looks as the concept. Also, it will still be a Toyota inside. 

It has tremendous promise. We will see what we end up with. 

Yup, de chrome and tint the windows.

Reasonable review but the gear shift is 0.2 seconds so bloody fast. Similar weight to its competitors, similar lap times to the m4, kids go in the back etc etc. I don’t think the reviewers do enough research before making these comments. 

Never ceases to amaze me how much wheels can be improved just by a change of colour. 

Glad you are happy but not convinced by the yellow callipers as nothing else on the car is yellow. How much did they charge for the callipers?

The wheels are a massive improvement. Love them. Any plans to colour the chrome? Stands out a lot now. 

Congratulations and like everyone here you looked at the ownership proposition and made the correct choice. Hope you get lots of fun from it :)

Also, I’d be keen to hear how much they charge for caliper painting as it’s a very involved job. To do well they are removed, stripped and then painted before being reassembled.

@Stuno1 A double post deserved a double like 😂

Glad you agree with the wheels..... got stuck in the traffic earlier and along side me was a Black Alfa Quadfliggyfiggy.........well you know what I mean it had Matt black wheels with Brembo Yellow Callipers did look good I mean really good........ not to late to change my mind I guess and go black.....🤔

Personally I would go blue callipers to tie it in to the f blue theme of the car. Definitely all dark wheels though. I can’t believe how much it changes them. I really don’t like them in srmtsndatd guise but dark I love them. I really don’t like the chrome badges, window trim or front grill smoke colour thing so they will all be going black as well.
