Not this time. Was tempting, but all you can "see" of the new cars is what we've been shown already (in terms of MINIs I mean). The Diesel, JCW etc will be proven by how they drive, not their bodykits.

Actually have little interest in the Mini stand and not going for them (although it will be the first time I've actually been able to get into the 'new' Mini.....)

Going to see the new Audi A5 couple, and the new Maserati coupe as the main points of interest at the show.

Also going to get very drunk in Geneva and test the local lapdancing clubs with a mate of mine...

Dont tell the missus.

I'll be there! Well, it's 10 mins from home =)

One thing I have to mention is if you're hiring a car in geneva be damn careful about speeding - they just changed the law and 20kph over the limit is 20% of your monthly salary minimum 500GBP (more or less)... 10 days or so in jail is possible for anything >20kph over.
