He parked next to a VW... a very very smart one at that.

Liking the cars... have any owners ever come up and asked why your taking pics of their cars?

See you at the dyno day.

Is it just me? or are there others out there who do not like those Continental GTs? If I had millions I would not buy an ostentatious motor like a Rolls or Bentley, there are the preserve of the nouveau rich footballers or property developers.

Now Gordon, that's more like it!

Oh....and why were you visiting the building suppliers in the first place, Carlos- looking for a bit of insulation & draught excluder for your 'loveshack-to-be', perhaps?

Not a fan of the Conti GT I'm afraid. Big road presence but so's a yellow Transit. Would not buy one even if I had millions, just like 'Petay'. If I wanted the Brit GT thing, regardless of income, I would have nothing more than a new Jag XKR (that's a Jagwah, by the way), or at best a DB9.

BTW, were you at the builder's merchant for some tartan paint?

However, you clearly visit the champagne builder's merchants. Sod all like that ever parked near my local Jewsons!
