Hi All

[alanm73]

Just thought i would say hi to everyone.

Joined the forum ages ago when i first thought about buying a Cooper.

Well today i finally did it went to B&Q in Stirling for paint via Menzies and bought a very very nice 55 plate Astro Black Cooper S.

Roll on Wednesday

Hi Alan welcome to the site.

Sounds like you could have bought Scottiecoops black S. Very nice. :)

[The Dogfather]

Expensive paint trip :D welcome Alan :)

[AndyP & Lenore]

Harmon Kardon? JCW Exhaust? JCW Brakes? JCW Wheels? If so, as zimbo said, sounds like Scottiecoop's car.

If so, it's good to know the cars gone to someone still in the NMS community.

Hold the fort! Let me get this straight.... Your name is Allan, right? And your wife/partner/better looking half/girlfriend's name is Fiona?

This is a tad spooky is it not?

[Craig]

just to clarify Alan....

the car used to be owned by a guy called Allan, whose wife is called Fiona and they change their cars quite a lot also...;)

NOO noo NOO noo NOO noo NOO NOO NOo NOOOOOOOO. Tonight, On The Twilight Zone.....;)

[alanm73]

Iain/MiniMe mentioned yesterday on the test drive that the car was owned by an Allan & Fiona and we thought wow thats strange/spooky/fate!!!

Only diffrence is i only have one L.

As for changing the cars often up to dec 04 had an Astra SRI from new for almost 4 years

Then bought a Civic Sport and hated it tin can on wheels (Kept for 7Months)

Then bought a BMW325CI Sport best car i ever owned!! but written off after 2 weeks due to RWD novice on wet greasy roundabout and a lamppost that got in my way.

Then bought an Audi A3 TDI S-Line DSG nice car but sleep inducing to drive and it brings a whole new meaning to the world of understeer.

The Mini will be kept for a good while (promise)

[The Dogfather]

?spooky!

<Scream>

<runs for the hills, scary>

[Scottie]

Iain spoke to us yesterday. That is a bit spooky. Hope you enjoy the car.
