Great to meet up with others today.

Especially cacatous, 5litreRita and Grimbo

Love the Tuscan, loved the jaunt around Slough/Windsor/Maidenhead/Bracknell too.

Glad my RX-8 could keep up too!

I think it's the 7th ....or was it the 14th?

Nah! defiantly the 7th, so perhaps at the next meet.

That is the 14th, off to Leven for a factory tour.

nope, same with me - but at a VW meet the cerbs/griffs/chims are 2 a penny so unlikely somebody is going to be snapping away at your particular car. Not much chance when even the fezzas were being overlooked with everyone grouped around the lambo

The Smart (*coffs*) thing to do is to deny all knowledge...it's only a rumour afterall until someone proves otherwise!!

Nice weather today, isn't it?!?!

Difficult one, MM!!

A Smart move would be to leave the Volvo at home and turn up in the Chim But who knows...maybe I'll bring him along in my new A3 unless he buys a black Tuscan between now and then

Btw, I left my top on today...it maybe sunny but it's frrrrrreeeezing cold

Nice to meet you too with your new toy looking very nearly as Smart as Big Al's one!

well after being steered straight past the cars to the coffee machine (note: the coffee machine is through a door marked staff only, through the workshop into the stores area etc - he certainly knows his way around) we made it back to look at the cars - a mighty fine array of beasts!
a flicker of interest in the cerb (I think he has had a drive of it previously) lost of conversations regading Tuscans with the Boss man back into the workshops to look at a couple of Chimps (one was a 4.5) back into the sales area for a second browse.

But the answer to your question is...........














I have no idea other than he had a look

come on Al put us out of our misery

Some of us have to work. .

Fernies well they did have a Tuscan S but it was an 01/02 I was advised that if I was going to buy an 03, then test drive an 03.
So now waiting for one to come in. Spoke to Simon about colour combo's etc. They are going to keep a look out, so no hurry yet.

But I can assure you now Roz it will not be Black! or Green.

Quite like Spectraflair Silver, Crystal Topaz, and so many others of the other fabulous colours. Watch this space!

Still yet to drive a T350t, but I don't think I'm gonna get on with the interior layout.

Know my way around? Ben (the Guvnor) said they were having a set of overalls made for me.

I thought when they offered us the use of an office to drink our coffee in/warm up they were going to say you had your own office

cheers for the run out and back Al, thouroughly enjoyable day especially the run to Fernies and then home

Mrs Big Al's criteria for a sports car is Lid Off.

Lots of lid on cars to choose from and not only TVR's and Six Speed engines!
