AAAAHHHHHHHHGGGGGGHHHHHH!!!!

I want my CAR!!!!!!!!!

The bloke I sold the Clio to is breathing down my neck for an exchange and he's sending the money over today so I'll be carless come the weekend

And I want my MINI, I keep bothering the girl at the dealership to see where it is in the production line and she can't give me any details. The sooner I get it the sooner I can get it run in and start having fun

In the meantime I can borrow my father in laws Metro Nightfire but I'll have to insure it myself or leave the Clio insurance running and drive it on the 3rd party part of my policy.

Also does anyone know about changing insurance company mid policy? I have a while left to run with Elephant but the policy of Admiral is so much cheaper for the MINI can I get a refund?

When I changed car they were able to adjust my premium mid year. As in changing companies mid year - I doubt they'll be friendly about it - you might not clock up your years NCD for that year...

Hope you get your toy soon! I want a spin in it!

bah quit your complaining, when you have to play with a 1L 45bhp polo come back and see me

I'm really interested in what your mini will be like, i've been a passenger in one of my friends one's when its been given some stick and that thing went. He promised that I could have a go later so i'll be taking him up on that offer

With your turbo properly dialed in I have no doub that you would win, your car is better balanced and being FR a better car for racing tbh. I am also a crap racing driver and too precious about my new baby and we haven't even got her yet. Lastly I'll be carrying a lot of balast!

If you pay me, I'll sit in with Will as a passenger

Didn't you quote the wrong person, btw?

We'll see about the speed she'll need a bit of running in before I can test her out properly, I still think Will's MX5 will be faster but the MINI will be a good compromise she has 3/4 seats and all mod cons
