I'd be mortified if that showed up as my ride.
I think it's great! Like a perfect snapshot of luxury in 1994!
To your funeral, I agree. As I think Alex was alluding to 😄
Chapeau for that excellent wordplay.

Re: Today’s want

That’s a lot of car for the money! It's definitely a lot of car. It's also a lot of money. However ! For a Range Rover with more LWB, for less money, this is being auctioned next week. Check out what the state of the art was for in-car entertainment at the time. https://www.historics.co.uk/buying/a...

I'm ashamed to say that my borough voted overwhelmingly in favour of Susan Hall. Luckily the rest of London isn't quite so insane.

Khan isn't perfect, but he's a damn sight better than the alternatives.

For clarity it wasn't a dig at his size, we're all the size we're meant to be!

It should read as MX5 1 GET, with the 1 representing I. It was about his desire for yet another MX5.

Re: Randomness

Deep, man. I mean Loch Ness. It's deep and long, that's why it has more water. Isn't it technically that Loch Ness has more water than all the lakes in England and Wales? (as opposed to more water in the red area) i.e. I guess the "lakes in England and Wales" doesn't include reservoirs an...

That ticks a lot of boxes for me.
Same, just a shame about where in the country it is. But then if it was down here it would be £2m without the land.
What a cheek, it’s a mile down the road from me 😂

It's been a mad week but big strides forward. It's amazing what you can do if you get lucky with the "find a trade" type websites. Two guys responded to the ad for tiling the small bathroom. Both came round. One was half the price of the other and said he could do the job this week. He's ...

Re: Where would you live?

That's quite a range, and opens up both Surrey, and parts of Kent if you head south. My wife grew up near Reigate in Surrey and that is a nice area. I guess you'd need to factor in the joy that is the M25 and the time it consumes if you're travelling (if that's the correct term for a slow moving par...

You want a 612 - the best looking Ferrari ever made. And it’s simple RWD.
Not sure it is the best looking one, but they're quite something.

Re: Your fleet running reports

355 was always the one for me, but not sure how those values are. So can the man maths then say that actually a 360 or 458 is a better bet because you pay more up front… I think you’ll find a 355 is more than a 360 ! The 360 is cheap, and usable. That’s my boxes ticked. Nobody ever accused you of b...
