Well....

After this topic in GG on on the PH front page: http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&a...

I made a phone call and ended up with this on the drive.





Frivolous because I had a perfectly good RS4 and cooper S on the drive this morning and now just the cooper S and the GT500. I will be blaming PH till the end of eternity due to this purchase biggrin

PS the front door is work in progress hence the lack of letterbox etc...

You got rid of an RS4 for a Mustang GT500?

How's the mismatched LED colour on the dashboard - clock vs. radio? wink

I must be in negative numbers then!
I've driven both and I wouldn't have chosen the 'Murrican one, even in the U.S. paperbag


ETA: It's certainly frivolous!

Can you get spares for the Costco micro quadcopter? I just lost my 2nd black rotor. One of them pings off very easily and it pinged off to gods know where. Again.
Banggood.com sell all the bits if you can bare to wait.

The head unit will be replaced soon enough for a "more functional" one!

Have always wanted a GT500 biggrin

not its just a matter of time till it kills me, forgot how forgiving the RS4 actually is.

Despite having plenty of perfectly functional glasses to drink out of, I decided a set of these would be better for when I have coursemates over to the house...

I already own three watches but I don't have a smartwatch.
Predicting a bottom drawer dust collector but hope it's actually useful.

Should I have waited for the Apple watch, time will tell!
