Mind you, it wounds like a perfect way to put a restless bub to sleep, a drive in a MCS at 3AM

BTW, when does your Sheila "Drop" ??

okay, 90 minutes left now!

& god did i have a bad night's sleep - tossing & turning all bloody night!

anyway... it'll be window tinting & then up the coast to forster for the weekend - will report back after that!

Saw mine today {pre delivery} after a 12 month wait. pick it up next weekend after all the bits are added and she's cleaned up.

Does a december 2002 build constitute a 2003 and model, and therefor all the minor problems fixed. (hopin)
