at long last the parts (bumper cover and duct) have arrived from Germany, job should be finished on Monday and I should get the car back sometime next week!!!
Pork should be back this afternoon. Quite enjoyed the Cooper S - albeit with oddly sharp steering,
Wheels right in the corners takes a bit of getting used to but does make them a go-kart
nice car - really well put together (I guess that is BMW), nice to drive - seats could have been more comfy. I could live with one.

I knew more about it than Porsche Swindon when they phoned to tell me I had a fix date in April.

The GT4 RS looks insane!
Suspect itās the best driverās car Porsche have ever made.
Sadly unobtanium.
Unless you want to pay 75-100k over
LOL, they add on a $200k āmarket price adjustmentā but still want $400 for floor mats!
The Rolex business model.
