I just realised, it needs a genuine battery!

Bit of an Italian car frenzy on Topklasse I see of late! Here is a real Gp4 Stratos, the expression on my face should tell you what it was like to drive :)

I hope the "New" ghibli goes well, priced bang in the middle of the equivalent 5 series/E class. I can't help but think the name has been prostituted however. Here's a real one :)
