Right then,

Tomorrow I go for a look at

I will go with forms of payment, intending to take the bugger home with me if its to my liking. Does anyone know anything about it?

I also got some insurance quotes. 33 year old, no no-claims, 3 points, 5000miles pa.

Autotorque - �2500 total pants
Esteem - �950 + �26 per track day. (classic car cover)
Footman James - �781 + �105 per track day. (classic car cover)

I’ll probaby go for Esteem, but do they seem about right?

So by this time tomorrow I may be at home with new toy.

Maybe!

Andy.

Yes Yes I’m often asked where the scissors and hair care products are kept blah blah. I am seriously thinking of getting a Jag XJR instead does this help?

MR2 to XJR is like going from hairdresser to boutique owner. Same thing, just more money

10

See, I was thinking of an MX-5 for the runaround then a JEEP or one of those Suzuki Viagras for the rest of the time

I’ve changed my mind, I don’t think I’ll get the exige, I’m going for an MGF

as long as you can accessorise properly - you dont want it clashing with your hand bag/shoes/hair slide/poodle…

And get this. I dropped my colleague off today at the alfa garage as it was in again for mending. I dropped him off in the Exige. I offended the salesman by refusing to get out and go in to the showroom as the sight of them offends me. He had the cheek to come out and try and tell me the top of the range 147 would whop the Exige. I gave him a funny look and set off back saving my breath for a good chuckle on the way back to the office. Knob!
