Did the shopping in mine today and spared a thought for you as I took a 10 mile detour home. These cars are so good, worth a small bag of peanuts judging by the prices on ebay mind, but quite magnificent nonetheless. Even if I should fail to get rid of mine I shall be content, wrong bloody colour and all
 .Wife psychology is thus: Spending 2 grand on the current one to bring it to Spec of S = bad. Spending 2 plus what I get for mine on an S8 = fine. ????? Sounds like all had fun, must admit that I am not the most sociable of bunnies but once the dust has settled I would like to engage a little more with people. If only to escape the fun that is exam season  Bill

Glad everyone had a good time - wish I could've got there....
Was in Swindon for Sunday and ended up wasting half a tank of v-power getting there and back for it to pee down most of the day, when I was racing my rc nitro buggy - went home early when I broke it good and proper and ended up stuck in traffic jams on the M4, going through Bracknell and on the M25
