Welcome to our little corner of Pistonheads.

Congratulations on the purchase, and from the conversation so far, I think you will fit right in. cool

Can you come along to Surry Rolling Road next month for the social, even if you don't have your car?
Cheers buddy smile

I might be driving over to Switzerland on the 18th, but may be able to persuade the wife to postpone departure by a day wink

If before you get yours you are ever up in Yorkshire give me a shout as mine is perfect blue. So you can have a look at the colour in the flesh.
Thank you very much mate. You are the one who got the tourer aren't you? A lovely motor that. I think the closest to Yorkshire I will be is the Peak District the first weekend of December, which I may be really lucky and have picked the car up by then!

There will be other times. Let her know that you have given up a social for time with her, and it will earn you brownie points for goodies for the car. wink

Welcome to the nut house, great purchase OP, enjoy.

Hopefully Sarge 4x4 will chime in shortly, in the next few days anyway, think he's in France at the mo? He's had his Gen F breathed on by Walkinshaw, he can let you know what was done and what they achieved smile
