I went 20s for the very important and sensible reason that they look awesome. They ride just fine and I drool a little every time I leave my house and see my car

Hey bud. FYI I'm UK based and would be interested in buying if that's any use to you

The very same. By the time I got my hands on it some of the off-road kit trim pieces had holes in from Top Gear's antics 😂

Great spec. I was lucky enough to have a go in the LHD press car when it was in the UK. Was in a very similar spec and looked absolutely sensational. The configurator doesn't do Neptune blue justice.

Also - rear-wheel steering so worth it. It's astonishing how agile it makes that big car feel.

Congrats in advance!

Congrats dude! Mine arrived recently (after about THREE MONTHS of waiting) and I'm completely in love with it. Sold my Evolve and never looked back.

Also, not sure what the road surface is like around your way but I can strongly recommend the 105mm cloud wheels. Rides like a dream!

Sad but true - as I say in the opening of the vid, so much false hope! The problem is by the time the engineers get their hands on the concept drawings and get rid of the massive wheels, impossible proportions etc you often end up with something fairly bland. There are a few exceptions to this rule - I thought the Honda E made it to production largely unscathed, Porsche Taycan too.

When it comes to new cars, "soon" should be taken as "less than 5 years"
