CJ Posted November 27, 2003 Share Posted November 27, 2003 Some of you may recall that i posted a thread that said, "10 days to go" than "9 days to go" etc. It was with reference to how long it was before I picked up my soop. Well, that was about 3 weeks ago:( but wait for it, tomorrows the day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suprash Posted November 27, 2003 Share Posted November 27, 2003 Yep, the first day, picking her up, driving her for the first time, I remember thinking Leeds to Basingstoke, I got some get to know her, unfortunatly a little too long for my liking, thanks to the M1, got completely stuffed, left Leeds around 14:30-15:00'ish should have got home around 18:00, eventually did at nearly midnight, what a day, hope yours is a little more traffic free....

Matt Harwood Posted November 27, 2003 Share Posted November 27, 2003 The first time I drove my first one, I remember thinking "I'll never get bored with this power"... about a month later I'd fitted a boost controller! - Closely followed by RLTC!

Well, I am hoping for a better ride tomorrow. I am picking her up at Southampton then driving down to South wales to pick my son up. From there it's back to Oxford. I reckon that should be enough time to get a smile on my face eh? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Faye Posted November 27, 2003 Share Posted November 27, 2003 Not sad at all. I couldn't sleep the night before I picked mine up and was desperately praying for nice weather so I could have the roof off straight away. I remember leaving the garage in a flurry of wheelspin and gravel because I was too keen to get going Have a great day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
