CarAdvice embarks on supercar odyssey
February 23, 2008 by Alborz Fallah
Well guys, here we are, Sydney international airport, 30 minutes to go and I have to stay, the feeling is surreal.
I wish I could convey it to you in better words, but we are sitting here sipping on cold Mexican beers and trying to comprehend the fact that soon, we will have the keys to five of the world’s best supercars, worth a total of over 6 million dollars.
I could go on and on but to put it simply, there is no better job in the world (keep that in mind as we will be hiring in the near future).
Karl, Tony and I will be away for five days and in that time we are going to France, Italy and the UK.
We will road test the Bugatti Veyron, Lamborghini Gallardo Superleggera, Lamborghini Gallardo Spyder, Pagani Zonda F and Aston Martin DBS (yes, all in five days). Maybe we can squeeze in a Fiat 500 too.
Next update will be from Abu Dhabi in about 20 hours (Internet and time permitting), with updates to follow from Frankfurt and Strasburg.
No tags for this post.
Bet you can’t wait to get behind the wheel! :D
KARL, TONY AND I…..WHO IS “I” AS VAGUE? Lucky sods!
I’ll admit it, I’m jealous :)
Bring me back a Veyron!
Good luck guys. Wish I was there with you.
Hope you lot have packed arm clothes its about 9-10 degrees here and wet with lovely chilly rain.
Enjoy
*warm* sorry
Hiya No Name….so your over there! Geepers crikey is cold mate over there! You must have a great tan for an albino!
Pack your woolens lads, it’s bloody cold over here!
This is going to be epic. Where do apply? ;)
Naughty Max – Yep mate I thought you knew I was a pohm of the whinging variety. Ha Ha. Yep cold but spring just around the corner which is nearly as warm as your winters in Brissy or Perth.
5 days isnt a lot of time…will u be over jet lag in time to be ready for the drives?
^ more likely to be a problem on return! after the adrenalin drops off a bit…
Wow this is such an odd feeling I have to say have a great time and have fun etc, but as I’m not able to to the same thing I have the urge to kick you all in the nuts, I’m so conflicted.
Have fun guys and make sure you are wearing a cup, there may be others out there like me.
sorry very jealous… look forward to reading the articles :)
