nixy

very nice!

Give over, Nixy, you'll be fine! Only 24 days to go - are you getting excited? Yep, 3 weeks on saturday is Z-Day! I'll be without a car for a couple of weeks before then which is my big problem at the moment!

Sorry about that and best of luck with everything!

Shut up! You're all scaring me!

NO! That's worse than actually being a wimp! Don't think they cost that much anyway - we're talking about £13 I think. What was in the parcel by the way?

Well I think the onus is on me to get the size right and as for discount - I'm far to shy to ask for anything like that!

from your mate - but he needs the dimensions. Just looked at Demon plates and as Jim says there is an option for that size on there so maybe it's just me but it looks huge! That's longer than A4.

330 x 178 mm I ordered mine from Demon Plates http://www.demonplates.com/ They have a range of import size options in their plate builder section, and were quick to deliver at a reasonable price. Just coming back to this subject - I'm about to order my rear plate but 330 x 178mm when I look at it on a ruler looks massive for a square one or is it just me?

and private spelling lessons.

good luck! Sad but necessary - at least you've had one, and may get another.

So, is the Z to be known as Zebeddy ? that's not a bad one actually! all my cars have names and are always boys. It's a girl thing I suppose......... Henry Honda was a play on Henry Fonda if you hadn't guessed......... And Louis - stick with it! I got lots of muppets offering me peanuts - one offered me 7,400 which is about 1,500 less than I advertised it at!

no chance - it will be going straight onto the deferred loan before I have to make a huge first payment!

Henry Honda is now sold! Yippee!!

thank heavens you're more sensible than him! Welcome on board. Nice car!

Nice one! Look forward to the pictures of the jelly that you'll need to go with it!

To be sure of that you'll want an ST then. Or get an S and have the leather seats done for 4 - 500 quid.

I didn't think you were having a pop - to be honest I probably wouldn't recognise the difference unless you stuck them both under my nose.

I only saw it from behind. It was an 07 - that's what I meant by new.

true, but any optional extras would just be a bonus so it's all good!

can i just also point out that not all importers buy the cars themselves and sell them on for a profit. There are some importers who act as a broker for you and charge a fee. Thats the route I have taken and the car is grade 5. Not all importers work the same way - there is a difference between importing cars and being a trader in imports.

sounds like you'd be looking for the version S then. Everything the same except for leather and Bose. Plenty of those about as well.

You can always keep tena lady or a pair of rubber pants in your glove compartment! ...............sorry have I killed the fantasy?

ah that's the one. Also spotted 3 huge Renault F1 lorries leaving Elvington Airfield after doing some sort of testing on the airstrip.

You don't see one for days and then you see two! Silver on the York ring road with number plate which kind of says Kevin - spotted him before. Then in Elvington a brand spanking new 07 black one (is it still Kuro or is it called something else now?) Can't wait to get mine so I can wave to everyone - and they'd better wave back!!

but if you're working it doesn't matter - you'll be SO busy!
