Have Murray got one in, like?

I now work far to close to the showroom for comfort...I can feel my first lunchtime visit coming on already!

I wouldn't imagine so, seeing as the weekend is the launch. Although stranger things have happened...

I dont think they will have one in yet, as its official launch is this weekend, however i think they may have 1 in next week maybe? Going to phone Graeme this afternoon and find out :thumbsup

Ah but if i compromised and bought this, it would allow more funds for a better everyday car, where as the other option wouldnt allow me to have a nice everyday car :wink:

Im gonna go look at 1 if/when MMC get one in and see whats its like, if it ticks the right boxes then MAYBE i'll have one, if not however the other car is most likely the one i'll go for :thumbsup

Campbell you should have went along for a looksie anyway :wink:

One thing is for sure, if i do decide to go for one of these, those wheels will be getting powder coated the same colour as the stripe, as i dont think the black goes :thumbsup

So, did you find out? :?:

I think it looks great, for what it's worth.
Once had a '2006 Lotus Europa - bit more power version' but it leaked real bad!
I'm the unluckiest guy in world when it comes to cars, the last 12months being proof of that!! Why couldn't I just love uncomplicated things instead........................?

Always on the look out, tut! Not having a car at the moment is real pain in the A55. I've got a deposit down on the new face lifted Audi S3 but don't get that till 01st Sept. Still on the look out for a toy. In the meantime I'm growing tired of public transport, and personally funding Johnstone taxis!!

If I can rob the other half of her polo tomorrow evening then I'll see you then. If not, have a good weekend everyone!
