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
