Motorways can be fun!
I remember collecting my S this time last year from Cambridge to York. Racing a varied collection of cars up the M1, none being other S2000's...

You always want to go that bit quicker and are constantly looking at cars as you pass them just to make sure they are not the police :-)

Can't sleep - dog thinks it's going for an early walk, oh b*ll*cks oh b*ll*cks


After the neck thingy and tat (I'd have to change my log-on to Rantboy) I guess the first mod that I can afford is some furry dice followed by the Carlos Fandango wheels.

Here goes - post again when I'm skint

Hope it all goes to plan for you, just go easy in it until you're used to it, I'm sure you've heard they can bite sometimes lol

I'm liking the idea of an S2000 uniform - floral cravat with optional pipe ?

Officially a Newbuy now!

First upgrade will have to be a new hamster (or re oil it's wheel) - when I turned on the side lights the dash nearly went out - wasn't expecting that!

Car felt reasonably planted, moved a little when changing gear enthusiastically. Still in the early stages of understanding the car, seems to need a lot of down changing to coax performance.

MB - I'm hoping you're going to be my mentor - Andy's giving it the once over on Thursday

Thanks in advance for all the assistance I'm going to need.
