Steve, I hear you only need a origin B2 to complete the complete RADAR set, I know where we can get one of those!!!
Hopefully u may remember to bring my Euro 550 along to the Kidd on Wed.

LOL. Haven't managed to collect a Road Angel as of yet, maybe next time. What are these things worth on the s/hand market anyway?

I'm picking up the prints in the next hour or so - digital pics are still in my camera awaiting processing so they should be up shortly too. See you chaps Wednesday.

Your lucky the farmer didn't catch you on his land

Tony you need to sort the front of the car out if you are going to have these "arty" shots taken

Steve very nice photos see you Wednesday.

No, he would have probably thanked us.... I was wearing my PH Le Mans YELLOW t-shirt (never again!).... which meant I attracted the whole insect population from his farm onto the t-shirt and subsequently into the inside of the car!!! At least at Le Mans there were lots of other people sharing the duty of attracting the flies

Note to Ted: different colour next year please.

There's not a lot of point in getting the stone chips done, as I'm sure they'll re-appear fairly quickly!!! At the end of the day I did buy the car to drive it, and not photograph it... and it's easier (and cheaper) to "photoshop" the snaps rather than re-spray the front-end!

...it's probably just the extra weight of that GB sticker unsettling the natural weight distribution !!!

I think Jason bought a Z4 recently... I think they come with Hairdryer as standard, so you could borrow it from him on the next run!!

...don't deny it Jason!

I haven't bought a Z4, my fiancee has!!
as she is a woman, has long hair and is forever washing it , I guess the hairdryer option is actually an asset. Although I must admit to quite liking the Z4, you wont see me driving it!!!

BTW Tony how is your Vauxhall?

Funny, I'm sure that was you getting out of the driver's side, just after you pulled up, a couple of Sundays ago!!!

Tony,Tony,Tony,

As per V5C form
part C.4.c
"The registered Keeper is NOT necessarily the legal owner"

I happened to drive for 5mins that day as the missus said the car was pulling to the left, which of course it was not!!!
Women!!
Vauxhall vs BMW roadtest, who do u think would win!
