... I've not felt I had much to contribute until now! Bought my 4g nearly two years ago and just generally got it up to scratch - wheel arches, stereo, etc. all the usual stuff. It's my daily drive for my commute to north London every day - about an 80 mile round trip and suits me well. Much better to drive than the BMW barge I had before. So what's new? Well last week I drove to John O'Groats from Bucks and back for the hell of it. Here's the literal end of the road:

The car didn't miss a beat, achieved 36mpg and the odometer hit 150000 on the way:

Now planning to go to Lands End on Friday. Give me a wave if you see me on the M4, M5 or A30.

Seen this in Aylesbury, the bodywork is stunning.

Also met the chap last weekend as he came to pick up a sunroof off me.

Good to see you on here bud! :)
