Is that fake carbon paint? Hope they make a better job of this one than the last one.

So was I, was the one bidding on the other side of the fence - but, before anyone says I was on the wrong side... I know I was, but we weren't initially going to bid, thought we'd just watch...
Then half way through the bidding my dad taps me, "it is a one off..." and I agreed, and left it, then he poked me again and said, ah, you only live once... (we'd been thinking of selling mum's clio and replacing it with a mini for her to drive around in) so i stuck up my hand. Didn't make the final bid though, congrats to the chap that bought it, but still, got to shake Mike Brewer's hand.

Seen myself on the advert "2400 pounds yeeeeeees" (i'm the one standing with the camera waving like a loony :wacko: whoops...)

Really looking forward to seeing what I missed out on!

Totally, instead of the usual gloss finish the stuff comes in normally, it had a nice flat/satin effect that looked a little more classy. They did the same to the union jack roof too - looked lovely :D

Fake carbon for me looks cheap and tacky, but each to there own :D

hmmm
*goes to check if i have discovery real time on the virgin box*

I seem to have every possible different discovery channel apart from that one...Would make more sense to put it on Discovery Turbo?

Im sure some nice person will upload it onto Youtube at some point :D
