My brother in law is a traffic cop and was working the M74 yesterday.

Not long after Ollie left we got a frantic call from him asking if I knew where my car was

Lovely day out - and even though it was sad to see my car away, its gone to a lovely home im sure and thanks to Ollie for making a (usually) difficult transaction very easy.

That's amazing MPG! Is that from the DIS? That's usually a little optimistic, but it's damn good anyway.

But you might be deemed an unsuitable owner of an S8 if you drive it so sedately!
