I've been at Liverpool St. station today for lunch and there was an R8 and a marketing team there - I have now been offered a test drive at my local dealership - I might have to go and play with one then

If a pikey can get a test drive that means anyone can.

With the ridiculous tottery shoes & naff personalised plate!
It's still Mercaaaaydes for them 'round here.
The scaffolder's wife
driving out of the yard
with a face that's as hard
as a scaffolder's bar -
when she goes into town
she might take the top down
on the car.
The quick little steps
in the stiletto boots
and the hair with the roots.
She comes in as a rule
to get the nails done
and the tan for the sun
when the kids are in school.
Don't begrudge her the Merc
it's been nothing but work
and a hard life.
Losing her looks
over company books
- the scaffolder's wife.

There's a song on the new Mark Knopfler album which describes 'her' perfectly...
