Rich. Wasnt just Bruntingthorpe it got progressively worse after. For 7,000 miles it was unbelievable....

However, its sorted now, so lets not go there...

It's had a complete respray and looks better than it ever did. Also had new trim around the gear lever and handbrake as the old ones were a poor fit and had unglued themselves.

The geezer next door with the Boxster doesn't look impressed its back!!

I think they have a cure, a new venting pipeor something. Whatever it is it now fills up at full pelt and doesnt over flow....

Unlike your rants - maybe they should fit one to you

Anyway all your mods have brought your car up to the latest spec - congrats. Lets hope the paint job isn't poster paint this time...

Look, I'm genuinely interested ok?

Without descending into name calling, yes?

Tivster - you say that one could look at you car and see the differences in the body shell. But this is in the construction rather than the shape.

Given I am in the Channel Islands right now and my eyesight isn't that good, please would you tell me what visible differences there are on your car versus a 'normal' T350, and at what stage in the ordering process did you request these differences, or indeed were made aware of their existence?

(There, I asked nicely - so you T boys play nicely too, or I'll embarrass you all in my 'proper' Tuscan)
