GT3 RS, Great Winter Tourer

I took the RS out for a trip this week. Enough storage space for all my gear and a bit of traction control if the ground is a bit slippy makes it the most practical one to take. One of the places we visited (Lucknam Park) had the most amazing drive so it would have been rude not to take some photos.
