It is soon to be that time of year again. This post is designed to help our loved ones make the right choices for our Christmas Presents. If, like me, you are fortunate enough to claim that you have no real needs pressie-wise, I am hoping suggestions could be aired to resolve our family and friends dilemma.

I will make a start. Nothing of a naughty nature please!!

I'm thinking of exchanging bits for carbon.....side strakes, gear stick surround, facia trim, maybe install the new style wipers/arms and even the V12VS front grille...in carbon!

Do you think i'll get much change out of £5k?

Dear Molly if you are reading this we would like (Pearl and I) 32 titanium inlet valves, 32 matching exhaust valves plus my head gas flowed. I have 2 heads by the way. Apart from that I have no other specific requirements other than things that I can unwrap wink
