Delivered my son (with all his clobber) to university in the Chim this week. Gave him a bit of an 'arrival' amongst the dreaming spires. Several comments (from other parents) about getting all a teenager's stuff in a sports car. But then we know, don't we, that Chims are surprisingly practical (must remember to keep telling the wife...)

Nice wheels by the way. What size are they?
