not really that far miles (bout 250 wach way) but when i bought my e30 i had to endure 1 hell of a journey....

set off at 12pm....got home at 10.30pm.... :mad:

To make things worse me and me mate had to squeeze into a nissan micra as that was the only car i could get hold of, and had chronic back pain by the time we got home thanks to that things seats :evil:

I went to Essex from South Devon twice in the same week to buy an E30 for breaking!
Also Gloucester to pick up my current one.

Always good to have a road trip
Yep I remeber that one, inc. the bus makin a mess of the pug @ chippy!!! That was a looong day, 17hrs (ish) IIRC
Road trips are ace! :wink:
