When I was looking for my first MC back in 2004 I looked at a number of cars (4 x MC & 1 x MR) travelling as far North as Edinburgh and South to London. At one point in the Nottingham area I looked at and test drove a MC & a MR within an hour of each other, the difference was very noticeable, with the MC being much more planted. The scuttle shake put me off the MR so the search went on for the right MC. Eventually the one from London was the one I bought.
So I can understand BMBabe's comments on her recent drive of Martin's MC in comparison to her own MR. The MR is good, but as she says the MC is a beast, a totally different machine.
Great photos by the way Stacy.
