Boggy, I wish mine was as close frown

After suffering for 6 months with my beloved Elise in the gagage up on blocks because of no tyres and now sold, and still another 5-6 weeks until my new (to NZ) Exige arrives, I'm WELL overdue... I'm just lucky there's only 7 more days of winter to go! smile

For sure... although at least the stressful part is over (completing a private sale sight unseen from the other side of the world and dealing with the logistics of importing the car) and now it's just the waiting part.... it may be agony, but at least it's not STRESSFUL agony.

that involves a lot of trust on your part, did anyone look at it for you here?

I had the same problem when picked up my car - had the interiro done and they took AGES. Worst bit was, they kept breaking their dates too which made me more angry (grrrr. see!)

I was at lipscomb yesterday - saw your old car Boggy !

No, I only went into the reception area didn't go to the garage/storage bit.

Not got any shots on this PC of my interior but all they did was retrim it in everything red for me (seats, door cards, steering wheel, gear stick) but also they did the centre console bit too which looks really good. It just took so flipping long to do! And, actually, when I got it it was a bit puckered up and stitched wrong (which I noted at delivery) - so a few weeks later they got it back for another 2 weeks yes However I'm very happy with it now; it looks superb, especially with the centre bit.

Stu,

The long, drawn out anguish and pain awaiting the arrival of the new pride and joy will only serve to make the joy and happiness of seeing the Boggy mobile in all its re-trimmed glory all the more worthwhile.

Chin up ol' bean.
