Default New arrival

On 14 March my boss pointed out that under our cash for car scheme my 2002 MCB had reached 4 years old and should really be replaced within the next 12 months.
Having test driven a Volvo C70 and an MX5 I realised that that was still only one car to have (well apart from my PT Cruiser beater that is!).
Honda dealers wouldn't play like grown ups so exit MCB to S2000-4U and hello to Moonrock from Hondas-UK.
2 weeks from start to finish. Impatient. Me? Surely not......................

Congratulations,

It's very pretty, but it doesn't look like a 2006 to me.

In the terminology of the main dealer who was trying to convince me to buy a similar model at an inflated price. "This is an 06 car sir but there will be a facelifted late 06 car later in the year but we cannot get them yet".
I'm perfectly happy with an 05/06 (instead of an 06/06) as I prefer the wheels and interior and didn't see much benefit in the other mods.
