Even the good ones... Was the R upstairs or downstairs?

I am surprised the R hasn't made TM yet?

I thought you had a buyer lined up too?

That all just brought back memories mate. I wet myself during the light show. I was looking for Colin wearing leg warmers. I remember he had just flown in and hadn't seen the car either, as I got out of the passenger seat from that picture he leaned over, flipped the front seat forward peered in the back, grunted and said "oh, I thought they would have made more leg room in the back". He didn't sound impressed. I thought it was a really exciting preview as first time I can remember being one of the few to have seen a totally new platform before even the mighty Mr Giltraps LOL!

I didn't see your R Pete. To be honest after being cornered getting out of the car at reception by Ivan I never made it to the showroom and I feel like a deviant wandering the underground car park with my phone camera light on looking into the dark recesses LOL!

I found a few videos on my PC of the light show ha ha. You can hear us s******ing in the background. I should have known we would get into regular trouble after that....

Apps style one at a time sorry....

Actually I bought my third set of MPSC2 tyres today. Third set in 6 months (these ones for putting on when the new ones that were put on last week are shagged in 4 weeks time). $10,000 for three sets fitted. Buba, I have you to blame for leading me down this rabbit hole. You are a bad influence mate ;-)

Damn. Even Rennlist has become Politically correct! Just for clarity and fortitude of our heterosexual selves the word in the post above that has "****" in it inverted by some Rennlist policebot is "s******ing" not "snogging". Just wanted to make that VERY clear to those of you with existed mind (Tania Taite from LTSA that includes you if you are reading this!!).

Doh!! "Snigggerrrringgg" - who would have thought that was a swear word? (Is it because it has the word "nnnigggerr" in it? The worlds changing to fast for me.....

The car dealers must have revised their sales targets after the Unitary Plan got knee capped yesterday. Some in the crowd were crying for civil war. Must check my insurance covers that

On a different note, less than 48 hours until I'm finally driving a sorted Herman. A few days short of 7 months from the first job, the control arm bushes. Macca, get those sales skills working. I'm thinking $110,000 and I will throw in the sculpture kit that is my box of lightly used gearbox parts.

No your insurance does not cover war.

Drive down all the main roads in Kohi and imagine a house on the back lawn. The suburb would just not be the same.

Imagine what your commute around the bays on a Sunday and during peak hour will be like with double the cars.

Also - it's not NIMBY - the council forced a change without consulting those affected.

It's called having the resources to tell people who impact your sense of well being without consulting or with an election mandate to f**k off and is to be commended.

I went to the same public meeting as John to see if I could go to seven stories. Realised that I was pretty much alone in my thinking and ran with the hounds in the end.
I had happy visions of an underground garage full of 911's and Fazza's and a penthouse on top, then the 5 floor midriff full of renters paying for the habit.
