An overused expression, but hardly adequate to describe an SRT 8 GK !!!:p

Collected my ( Right hand drive) Silver UK spec car this morning... whilst most of the Forum members were probably fast asleep.. but she certainly woke a few folk up in the sleepy little Somerset town where the dealer is!!

I Sold my TVR Cerbera and traded an `03 4.7 GK to buy the SRT8, and it has turned out to be a superb combination of both cars, but none of their failings so far !!

Great ride even over our twisty narrow bumpy UK roads, takes off like a scalded cat, and stops even better.

15 miles per gallon over the first 150 miles ( taking it easy , breaking her in ) and loads of "double takes" from passing 4x4 drivers.

AWESOME !!!

15mpg? nice. I have yet to see 10

Congratulations! Now your face is going to be sore from grinning too much. :D ;)

15mpg? nice. I have yet to see 10
I think a "UK" gallon is a little more than a "US" gallon, but at around the equivalent of $8.75 per gallon , it wants to be !!!:eek:

I am seeing 14.7 in around town driving and over 16 on the highway. my srt-10 ram never got better then 9.

Congratulations!!!
I'm very happy for You! I'll get mine at the end of july(if there will be no delay).
Does the UK/Euro version come with the same U.S. tyres ?
Are there some differences?
Thank You,
Giovanni

....Does the UK/Euro version come with the same U.S. tyres ?
The tyres are different and the rims are smaller (P245/45R20 on 8" rims). Same size for front and back as well.

Rob, can you post some images of the tyres?

The Tyres are Pirelli "Scorpion" run flat, a couple of quick photo`s are attached
