Well my holiday next week has gone from what sort of thing are we going to do 1) Drive around the UK a bit 2) Fly somewhere warm 3) Take the car to France and get a few bottles of vino to...... You're car is going to be ready to collect next Wednesday so now were off to Italy to do a factory collection and drive back through warm and balmy europe for a few days - take in the sights and hear that baby sing!!!! Ya hooooooo
Factory collection sounds like a great idea. Do you get away with paying the delivery charge if you collect yourself? Ken
Robin, Congrats!! Don't think i can think of a better holiday!! Enjoy the drive and don't forget to take a lot of pictures!! Looking forward to seeing them here!! CIAO... Guy
Robin that's going to be a real nice holiday,enjoy the new drive and please post some pics up of the car when you get back, Have a great trip, cheers Dale.
Robin this sounds fantastic ! What a holiday. I'm sure you'll have great fun. Only prob is how to top that for the next one
Sounds fantastic Robin! I wish I could have the time to do that too when my CS is ready. I am extremely envious!. I am sure you'll have a brilliant time. Remember to take plenty of photos along the way. Alex
Sounds s hite ! I'd much rather be at Chessington World Of Adventures/Legoland in the p issing rain , paying through the nose to queue up all day for c rap rides and to round the day off in an overcrowded fast food joint !! Have fun Robin.....
What a marvellous thing to do! Are you going to come back via the Mont Blanc tunnel? Now that really would be an event. Enjoy Robin. Kevin

My understanding is that I save a good part of the delivery cost. Not sure quite how much and this may have changed with the new pricing where that cost is part of the total price and not added on. I'll let you know
Andy, What you talking about? Yer missus has not yet missed a Lion evening, and that is a SAF the rest of us can only dream about! BTW, SAF (Spouse Acceptance Factor). I think this an TLA (Three Letter Acronym) we are all sesitive to! Robin, When do you alight back upon the shores of blighty? Some of us are hoping to meet up on Good Friday, and if you brung yer Strad, you could be assured of superstar status! In fact we would all want our picture taken standing next to you! BTW, when do I get my computer?
Won't be back for Good Friday, probably around the 20th (got to give Sarah some sort of holiday)- computer still waiting to find a home
