Pick up now sometime between Mon and Weds. How are you fixed then? I want to look at a Lambo I think is half your wayish so could possibly combine that with starting the running in so that would bethree birds with one stone.

Saturday at the latest now. I hope they're not painting it after a tech crunched it in the car park. I'll be going over every inch of it. Been offered a quick profit but I think a few months' fun is in order before we lock down again in the autumn.

Minor transporter damage is more likely.

Or someone didn't fill in some import forms quite right and there's a delay.

I've never missed a paint repair in my life so that would be a first. Nah, I know the DP, it's just covid.

Yeah, the prep guy is WFH.

Makes one wonder how it ever got assembled in the first place - long spanners?

My non UK status has confused the comparison at Toyota and the DVLA.

Meanwhile I was Toyota top trumped by a mate today at our intended comparison meet. Lovely thing.

Latest delay due to needing to take out Toyota's free drive home insurance which apparently makes it easier for the dealer to register and tax a new car. At least it won't get dinged at Goodwood.
