Can the car tackle the large speed bumps or do you have to make embarrassing U-turns every time you come across one?

Do you feel OK if you get stuck in a traffic jam, either with e-gear or the manual stick, or is it a pain to control the 500bhp in a stop-and-go setting?

Those are the two main questions that come to mind but if there is something that you think I should know about the supercar experience, do let me know. The one good thing about having one in London I suppose might be that you won't get too much attention as the city is full of rich people driving around in fancy cars anyway, so I should be able to use it even if I'm just going to the shops to buy some food :-D

Thanks in advance!
