Sun, food, wife and Motorsport Edition = Great afternoon.

[richard300]

Well, in my bid to make full use of the car before things change, and i'll barely get chance to see it, never mind use it.

I took a day off work, gave the car a clean in the morning, packed a picnic, put the roof down, picked up the wife from work, drove along the coast and had a picnic up in the hills.

Great day!

[Gert_8]

Nice - is that you, or brad pitt? My cabbie comes out next week - watch it piss down

Cabbie got taxed for April and guess what.........not rain, but snow on it's way. I knew it!

[richard300]

Thanks, that is me...... although, more 70's bloated Elvis than Brad Pitt

Yeah, i am making the most of the Sun and some Annual leave, as, in leass than a months time i'll barely get chance to drive it

But thats then, this is now, and any, and every opportunity i'm there, roof down!!

[Gert_8]

You've decided to keep it then?

[richard300]

No, not decided either way.... But I think if I advertise her she'll sell quickly (one on e-bay in wank condition with the interior missing <replaced with a normal cabby interior> No MOT and no tax or history and with an auto box just sold for £2395 within half a day of being advertised).

So for the next 3 weeks I'm definitely keeping, then when the wife starts her new job I'll re-assess (but will prob sell)
Just replaced her old 318i Auto E36 with a RenaultSport Clio 172, as it's her car that I'll be then driving all the time with the kids in the back (should be fun when I've dropped them off and carry on with the rest of my commute)

[Gert_8]

I thought I saw someone contact you regarding taking it. Presumably a tyre kicker.

[richard300]

I think he may have been genuine but lived really far away and had money burning a hole and couldn't wait For me to sell (fair play) he contacted me to say he bought a Mercedes SL320 last night.

[Gert_8]

Oh well. You'll definitely sell it, it's a very nice one.

[Duke137]

Nice ride(s)

[Dezzy]

This thread is a wind up right?

[DanThe]

What were the muffins like?

[Ranchero]

[quote="richard300"]





Bloody Hell! You even had bunny rabbits frolicking about.

Where was this picnic, Disneyland?

[Nobby_N]

What are her muffins like?

fixed

[Dezzy]

Amazing pic this one

[DanThe]

You love those glasses Dez

[Dezzy]

I love everything about that pic Dan

[Falkster]

Is the rabbits pic to make our imagination run riot? Are you telling us you smashed the granny out of your misses after chowing down on your picnic??
Nice shades btw!! Coolio!

[richard300]

It was my day in pictures..... Really, do CR24V people not know of a world outside of getting dirt under their fingernails and having a wank over some bint in the Sunday Sport.

The rabbits were there, so I took a pic. It was a picnic, so I took a pic, I was with my wife, so I took a pic, we used the E30 so I took a couple of pics.... Then I posted those pics in the Gallery section.

The title was absolutely self explanatory, so if you have no interest in viewing my very nice day, don't open the f@#king thread.....

Of course I fully expected the piss to be ripped out of me with (as I have already mentioned) my 1970's bloated Elvis look, and that's fine..... But shut the F@%k up with any comments regarding my wife!

[Dezzy]

Eh?

What's the crack with comments about your wife??? No ones mention her have they. I fooking love your pics. Looks lie you had a beautiful day to me.

[B7]

I could just see this one kicking off.

Nice car, Nice pics, shame your selling

[E30BeemerLad]

No pate in the hamper, oh the shame

[Gert_8]

I always take guacamole and tortilla chips - get the piss ripped out of me
By all the family and friends!

[Andyboy]

No pate in the hamper

Or Bollinger.


So Council!

[adit]

honestly, you should see some of the left-overs from the "back of a Rolls-Royce" picnics i used to find when working at "Glorious" Goodwood and that did include the odd drunken woman or two

[Gert_8]

^^ ah, nice to drink from the furry cup!

[Falkster]
