Update on the GTS running in regime

Update on the running in tour of GTS.

Started at 431 miles and now near Bergerac on. 1,321 miles.

The tour taken in night stops at Vinay (Champagne) Boismorand (Burgundy) and Brantome ((Dordoyne) and now close to Bergerac and some 8 miles from St. Emilion.

The GTS loves the French roads. Found the D78 from Thiviers (capital of Fois Gras) to Brantome on a twisty fast D road a driving delight.

We found the D47 very similar on the limestone road that takes in a number of the caves (grottos) and the lovely medieval town of Sarfat.

Really enjoying the manual gearbox. The system has just enough thrust to allow you to go straight from 6th to 3rd (the default setting) or with assistance a little bit of right input to the shift will fly straight to 5th. The car has such good sound proofing it means you can talk to your passenger at 75mph or 130 kph without the need to raise your voice.

The engine pulls really well well up the the self imposed 4K Rev limit for the first 2,000 miles. Looks like will hit this target on the final legs of the tour from Billiers back to Calais via Honfleur.
