ORIGINAL: geoff lane Guys I have now confirmed to Caroline what a weak willed easily influenced and completely insane individual I am. My beautiful C2S Cab is GONE replaced by a Gen 1.5 TURBO. Please convince me that I still have a little sanity left even if I cannot justify the mortgage I have had to take out. Privileged or Insane ? Roll on Normandy !!!!

Stunning and beautiful. Life's too short. Well done, Greg

I'm really pleased you're getting on well with the new car Geoff... I find that the smiles only get bigger the longer you have the car... PS don't forget to update your details on the register with Rob and the club [] garyw

Geoff - this site uses the word image instead of img for picture tags. So:

Alex Thanks wondered what I'd done wrong I was quite pleased with the original pictures only then to mess up the duster. Cheers, Still think the cars brill except you do seem to be able to hit the rev limiter quite easily, will have to watch that. Thanks again Geoff

Hi Geoff I now know who the boss is in your house after my conversation with Caroline at Christmas []. Looks stunning in red cant wait to catch up with you both in Normandy []. Maybe now you will lead the pack with that extra power.

No, second place! [][]

 

[Rob Edwards]

Now that looks the bee's knees Geoff! The time is right for Red to be 'in again' methinks. I'm sure you're going to have a LOT of fun with that baby![8D] Enjoy!! Rob

It certainly is![] Looking at your other thread Rob I hope your March build is more accurate than my supposed Jan build[]

Possibly only because only 1 person knows the exact route [] the bloke at the front..!! Talking of Red, it does seem to be the 'in' colour.... just about to post that nearly half the cars on the SW drive are Red!! [&:] The Normandy trip has a more balanced mix of colours [] garyw

 

[tscaptain]

Ok, third place then[] Although at this rate I may be in the Peugeot estate...........[]

At least the French will like you.....[]

 

[tscaptain]

More room for the wine though.....[8D] Anyway, I have full confidence in my OPC. [&:] If they tell me I will have my car for the Normandy trip why should I possibly doubt them..........[]

Ts I could give you so many reasons.............[8D]

 

[pwebb]

Of course if it hasn't arrived by then they will feel duty bound to offer you the MD's car for the weekend, sir

 

[tscaptain]

Thanks Peter, just spat out my coffee.......Hey, at least it's in the UK - somewhere

 

[Rob Edwards]

Fingers crossed for you tscaptain! Will make a mighty steed when it arrives, and it will be worth all the wait, that's for sure! I was lucky, they had a build slot already booked but I had to make a decision with 24hrs whether I wanted the car as the spec was being finalised the next day. At the moment it's apparently mid - late April, so misses my birthday by a week or so. Have fun with it in Normandy - some fantastic roads between Mont Saint Michel and Cancale (from my biking days) which offer some nice twisty bits with superb visibility.[8D] Cheers Rob
