Yeah, I'm not going anywhere, except Germany and the Lake District

I pick the Merc up tomorrow at 11am. So I'll post some pictures tomorrow afternoon I guess. I drove the actual car for the first time last night and was very pleased. The dealers are less so, because its probably cost them the better part of £1250 to get her up to sale condition. 2yr full service, two new rear tyres (Conti's, not cheap!), two new wheels instead of refurb and I think they'll have replaced the bonnet too by tomorrow. There were four small dents on the bonnet, that I doubt they will get out and they already volunteered to swap this if they can't repair this.

I got the plate change docs through this morning, so the S8 will back onto her original plate before Ranj comes to wheel her away. Still have a couple of niggling doubts about this, but I've also got new car fever, so I'll not sleep too well tonight. I feel like an 8 yr old on Christmas Eve.
