Congrats, a real beauty. I think that your colour scheme has real class.

Good luck and watch out for the speed traps.

Congratulations... is it just Mum who gets to drive it?

mumsMCS · Aug 16th, 2003, 09:05 AM

No, I'll get to drive it if I am nice to her! Plus if I pay the £7.50 it costs to insure me for the weekend!

AidenL · Aug 16th, 2003, 09:17 AM

I cant wait to get my grubby mitts on my new 'S', the more Indi Blue's I see in pictures the more I want mine now!

Nice car. Got the same one

Only with a white roof.

btw, what's wrong with your door? It seems to be closed, but not really.

Thats what happens if you don't close it hard enough. It often happens to me. It can happen to any car really, unless you give it a good firm shut.

Yeah, I took those photos while the dealer was explaining all the controls and stuff to mum - I guess she hadn't closed the door hard enough.

Just realised that those photos make it look like we picked the car up from some place next door to a jail or something!! It's actually a nice area.....

Have been all over dorset this weekend in it...amazing car. I can't wait until we have done the 1200 miles then I can really see how it goes! The reaction you get from people is amazing too......The only problem is if you stall it or crunch the gears everyone is looking!! (Not that I have done this.....I've always made sure to give it plenty of revs - it would be too embarrassing to stall it!)
