    Congratulations! I want a job at the local Aston Martin dealership, maybe the VW one, maybe the Bentley one or the LandRover one next door, hell, Renault'd be good too. Shame I'm just too far from the surrounding Audi dealerships... That'd be pretty awesome and I could hopefully get discounts for my Dad. 16miles East, 22miles South, 20miles North and however it is far to Basingstoke (what is it Sam? Your near there) is a little too far to cycle to and from each working day... God damnit!

    There are plenty of V8 RWD Mini vans and pickups around.

    I'd rather a MR RWD Z-cars one, with a ZX14 engine in there

    Congratulations Quiggs.

    You will never be late for work because of your 1.8T's incredible speed.

    I'll prove it! My friend up the road, his mate owns it, it;s over here alot in the summer, much to the residents of our lanes annoyance due to the noise. It's been in a national car magazine too, can't remember what, But I'll get it off my friend and scan it for you.
