My R56 One

After several problems with my convertible, including a roof which would no longer convert, I decided it was time for a change.

I went down to the local stealer this morning and had a test drive of the R56 One, and I have to say, I was very impressed. On the test drive the engine felt very refined and pulled brilliantly, especially considering as there were 3 of us onboard and the AC was on.

Following that, and if tomorrow goes to plan, I shall have put the deposit down on this little baby...




The showroom One, which they had only had in for two days! Its got Pepper Pack, Sports Seats, Piano Black Interior trim and a couple of other bits..

It shall be given the full Serby treatment with a white and black theme, including my Black and Chrome alloys (if they fit) and hopefully some unique graphics.. when I can think what I want!

I'll be sad to see the cabrio go, but I'm sooo excited about the new motor.... especially as I have had an insurance quote for the R56 which is less than half what I am paying on the cabby!

Can't wait
