2. I get it tomorrow. Finally !!!! I've owned it a week and haven't even got to sit in it since I paid for it. It was already at the shop for a PPI so left it there for a belt change (belts 8yrs old). Toss in a holiday and .. well ... I'm climbing the walls.
3. I work at home so it's all about having fun.
4. $2ka and it hasn't even been home yet.

Don't care to keep track of past $$$, that only spoils the fun.
Lexus ES300, Toyota Camry Station Wagon - reliable cars that help me justify my 944
Oh I forgot, RotaxMax 125cc Race Kart
