Can We Hear From Happy Owners?

I love it. My wife suprised me with the car on the 2nd of April. It has now done 1800 klms.

It is powerfull, comfortable and great to drive.

My wife also says it attracts a lot of attention from other road users. I haven't noticed that...

Checked out the top window screen seal the other day and found it all scrunched up in the middle of the screen, got a soft bit of plastic and managed to get it smoothed out, thinks.....uh huh here's the cause of the whistling problem :idea: , took her for a squirt.....nup..still there at approx 140 kph :( . Did notice that the seal is very thin rubber. I reckon a vortex is forming at the top of the curve (where the screen meets the roof) and the rubber is vibrating causing the high pitched drone. A thicker seal might fix it, but this is still one fun car to drive.....love her

Funny... my windscreen seal was scrunched up in the middle also... I thought it would have been a one off. But hey if that was the only thing I had to worry about I would be a happy man.. oh wait a minute.. I am happy

Have an early build, just done over 9,000 ks and still very happy. Had only 1 minor problem - no brake problems here but then I drive like a girl....most of the time.

I too have that annoying whistle at 140km coming from the windscreen - Has anyone found a solution yet......???

Another happy owner responding,

nearly 5000 k's on the clock, really enjoy being at the wheel (the mother of my children doubling as my wife hasn't asked for a drive yet as she's still enjoying seeing the big silly grin on my dial while I'm at the wheel.)

Yes a couple of niggles, no brakes or whines/whistles. It's intoxicting to drive at any speed & I think the fact that its got as much poke as it has is the main factor I find myself sticking close to the speed limit. Often choosing to use cruise control which works well from even 42 k.p.h. in school zones & such.

For all those contemplating a purchase I believe there are 3 options that are all important.

1 premium sound, it goes off

2 leather seats, comfy as, even for 120 kilo dude standing 1.98 tall.

3 boot liner, excellent for those who use their boots.

Good luck choosing Scotty. :D
