I was looking at the GTE they have in at Watford a few days ago. Looks nice and certainly has appeal.

Niiice.
Saw one of these on the road the other day.

I haven't been on the internet properly for months so forgive my ignorance but what's the point of this car over say a GTD?

You've done well to get one as lead times are really silly on these

Great concept and so much more appealing than other hybids

Very smart.  I like the blue trim on the grille which then goes into the headlights.  Nice how the calipers match that detail too.

Dials are fancy.  As the charge goes down the rev counter begins.  Some nice touches there!

Congrats!
