I think not John.

I have found in the past that the terms "GIT" is used when the other party is annoyed about something.

Having a wild stab in the dark here...but I think Lesley and Jason are waiting on a Cooper S.

I have that feeling now...you know...the one you get when you return to a firework after lighting the blue touch paper...

I'm now in hiding

:p;)

Very nice Marky. Bet you're chuffed. I'd get the swine that fitted those number plates though, they're rubbish - all blotted out with a big felt pen.... you'll get nicked.

Sir, I also put it to you that between 11:36 and 12:08 on the said day, you did, with stylish intentions and screwdriver aforethought, fit a chrome bonnet intake. Do I win a prize for spotting that, your honour?

Funny seeing your COOPER with the original alloys. Enjoy your new motor! No doubt by the time I see it, you'll have polished it down to the size of the old one......

Well spotted Euan, was going to change the bonnet intake when I got home but wey hey a torx screwdriver appeared from nowhere and I was 'instructed' to change it before I left the garage. Manage to give the car a wash and wax, wax today, yup two coats, so I feel a bit better :approve::approve::approve::D Also fitted mudflaps and the stainless steel tailpipe ends, they are suuuuperb :approve: They change the exhaust note as well making it sound much deeper :p
