Title: Saw the old girl again yesterday...
Post by: Sunglasses Ron on January 16, 2010, 05:59:56 pm
Was at the office yesterday for a National sales meeting and the old chap who is pottering around in mine whilst the DVLA look after my license was obviously there in the old girl. So took a couple of snaps so I can annoy myself a bit more every time I see them on my computer  :grin:.
Oh well, at least in 5 months time the rims, Milly and map will be back on + a few new additions and she will be back in my hands at long last..

Not in the condition I would have it in obviously. But no marks or scratches etc and he hates car washes which is a bonus  :wink:
Roll on June  :party:

Let's hope so mate..  :wink: It's going to be a bit of a shock to the car when she's back. For a start I will be getting rid of the 95 ron poison that he will of been running it on and getting her back on a healthy diet  :smiley:. I reckon she'll want running again after the way John drives..  :grin:

Pretty impossible to keep a car clean in this weather. Especially a white one  :laugh:

Still looks awesome though.

Quick question why didn't you garage it or let another member of your family use rather than a bloke from work while the dvla has your license?  Nice colour mate  :happy2:

Because it's a company car mate, although I have it 24/7. But with it costing the company nearly £580 a month and the other chaps car going back around the time I lost the license, it was never going to sit gathering dust at my house unfortunately..
