Which reminds me, on my old commute I kept seeing a Jag with the reg BT 52 but never managed to get a pic. Was that him ?

I saw the "what do you do if you want to transport more than7?" and thought it was my time to shine with a 8 seater! 8-) Then checked it's length and it has a tiny footprint!

Does have a pop up top though so I probably win the tallest...

A pal has the facelift (I guess at 65 plate) but just the 220. I like them.

I did laugh at the "cheap diesel" part I was all ready to suggest an old Volvo D5 at £800 or such :lol:

I don't think he ever got a personalised plate. Might be wrong though?

It's probably not too bad.

The F01 seats don't fold, so no chance of getting a full ladder in, but one of those 2-step things fits OK, with plenty of space for custard.

It's good to know that should I ever need to eat custard from the top of a 2-step step ladder somewhere remote, a 6GC will be the perfect car for my needs. 8-)

The cash had been reallocated for a new kitchen/house refurb sadly. Work that we can't currently have done... Given the prospects for our business at present it would probably also be a little bit silly to go blowing a big chunk of cash on a new car! :(
