    Yep, it's been a long wait Lilly. Thanks for being so patient too.

    Initially I was happy to wait til mid August to buy me a new car, but as my current one is falling apart, I thought no point in renewing the MOT so decided to go for it early. My current MOT expires on Saturday, so the VR-4 arrives in perfect time.

    Now, the mods... still looking around but I like the idea of an EBC, angel eyes, and a carbon bonnet (in time). No need to touch the induction, exhaust or tints - thanks to Rich.
    Aah, the stereo upgrades! Probably do that overnight on the day I get the car! Hmmm, gotta rip it out of my current car first.

    This weekend will be fun!

    Good for you....

    I am just pleased that she will continue to be loved and cared for.

    I must warn you though.... She isn't too used to being cleaned though If you are that way inclined.

    I promise to look after her.

    Not too sure about cleaning her regularly though. My car has only been cleaned 5 or 6 times since I've had it. Rainwater normally washes my cars.

    LOL - kinda why the exterior condition wasn't a factor in making the decision to buy. As long as she can keep the weather out of the cabin and goes like she did on the test drive, I'm content. Plus I'm content knowing that mechanically she is in very good condition.

    And to think that I smiled down upon you! Now I learn that you are a nothing more than a blasphemer, A scurrilous wretch who besmirches the noble house of GLS with foul dirt!

    Cherish the memories of your dreams! Pray that they shall provide your soul with a thread of comfort in the hellish vistas of the nightmares that you are soon to endure!!!

    Good grief Brad! That wasn't me!! I have no memory of that post!

    They do benefit the club though - The unwashed deserve to be struck down! Look at Lilly and Richy! They didn't keep their car clean and now they've got an MPV instead!
