Its at the dealers. It has to have the SVA mods and be put through SVA testing and registration. They're telling me 21st should be very realistic.

Right, i'm getting off the fence now, I prefer the racing to the drive and BG junior really wants to go to the racing too. Sorry Emma.

But I just want to drive my new baby. I guess I'll just have to go to Buxton for a pint of milk on the Sunday.

Just take the long way to Donington ...

M1 J26, head north, join A1M.

Turn off for Masham. Visit one of the breweries and stock up.

Back on a cross-country route to Leeds. Now running late so back on the M1 and a quick blast to J24 then on to Donington Park where a number of thirsty gentlemen will be waiting relieve the pressure on your Corrado's springs (from the beer of course).

I think we would all be suitably grateful.

I could offer to work out the full route for no fee. Or I could lend you my Sat Nav. You may need to leave early in the morning in order to allow suitable imbibing time at Donington.

Well come for a blast out to Cheshire & North/Mid Wales, can find plenty of nice roads to enjoy and leave them to their racing!!!

Emma,
Sorry if I diverted this thread but I'd have been up for it if it wasn't the GT weekend.
Hope this doesn't mean your mad at me and don't want to take any pics of the car. It has gone in for the respray so we should get it back in approx 4 weeks or so.

Mad? Boy, I am fuming! That's ok. I shall look forward to seeing and photographing the Griff in all its re-sprayed splendour.

With band-aids.

Hello, is that my coat and, oh yes, the doors open!

No, seriously, hope Mac gets re-sprayed and repaired after no-brain muppet gets back from the hospital.

Cheers maggit.
We pulled a blinder and managed to get a Tuscan as our "hire car". Andrea had the lid off this morning. Should get a blast at the weekend.
