Trotted off to buy a new family car. Had decided on Aintree Green with Almond trim and lots of wood. Thank god The Moose came along and we've ended up with Suicide Grey and Ivory trim. 22 inch alloys tho. Innit 
22" wheels 

What is it then? Take it you didn't get the Countach?

Following our Email exchange I had a call from a local hard-up farmer 
asking me which one I thought he should buy. Told him your 'plan' and I think He is going along similar lines also. He was a bit miffed that I knew someone taking a Jan delivery...He has been told March at best but He won't be getting the first one at his dealer like some lucky chap I know 
You do realise we will need a meet for me to road test it...now where was that lay-by

It's a nice sensible family car with a diesel engine. 
Binned the Countach idea but it's still on the market if you fancy it
Range Rover?

Are 22" wheels OEM or are you playing at being a black rapper?
Can't afford a Countach sadly, was hoping you were going to buy it then fulfill my childhood dream of letting me have a go in it!

Nick, my 2012 Disco 4 is Aintree with Almond/Arabica - small world.
Tick the £140 heated steering wheel option - FTW!
It's a little 'country', but completely classless and disarming which means its great for work without rubbing folks noses in it like a FFRR used to. I adore my D4, it is fantastic.
Damo. Ashamed to admit it but I have one of those too Tick the £140 heated steering wheel option - FTW!

22" rims are just in case you need to borrow the new one John and want to feel at home 
PS 10mm on the pads eh...1mm down after 6.5k...I must try harder

Were you advised to replace caliper bolts too? Calipers have to be removed to replace front pads I believe and bolt replacement is advised (according to my dealer)
