    Well said Davy - I'll second that.

    Not sure what the owner comment was - apart from a pop at Dad perhaps?

    Hope they've got the forecast wrong then Mark.

    I'm sure you'll enjoy regardless.

    My vote goes for the V12 cos thats what I've got.Does 46 years old put me in the Old farts Brigade or more worryingly am I already past that and heading for the Darby and Joans? If so it means trading my car for something a bit more suitable and sedate(maybe a 355 with fairy lights?)

    As an afterthought,as I've got 4 seats perhaps I'd be allowed to keep it so that I can transport my zimmer frame,the state registered nurse,and as an added bonus still have loads of room in the boot for emergency supplies of incontinence bags (ferrari badged of course! )
