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!

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! :cry:

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!!

You've decided to keep it then?

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) :D

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

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.

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!

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!
