.... a very excited person who's got a special reason to be excited.

Just put a deposit down on this little number. Should be picking it up on my way to Scotland on Monday 17th. It's going for an independant specialist inspection before then, so hopefully it will receive the thumbs up.

Went for the tiptronic box as I will be doing a lot of motorway driving, even though I don't think it's right for the car - i hate being stuck in conjestion working the clutch like I'm in a gym.

...

...

...

...

...

Can't wait for next week now, I just hope the inspection doesn't throw up any major issues.

No, went for the 3.2S. I knew if I got a 2.7 then I would always regret not getting the bigger engine. Made that mistake with the 7 Series, got the 3ltr & it always bugged me that I didn't go for 4 or 5ltr.

LOL @ Fozz, I don't need an excuse to leave the family behind & go for a nice drive on my own.  Grin Grin

I still really need to upgrade the PC & get back into FS, but some things will have to wait a while longer.

Thanks for the positive feedback chaps, next week is gonna be an absolute @r$e waiting for the inspection report.

Very nice Martyn!

You'll be in Scouse land before the Old Bill can say "You're nicked".

LOL, you've got it wrong there Rob, the idea is to get out of Liverpool quicker, not in.

(No offence John, but your Runcorn anyway, so that's fine.  Smiley )
