        So you're looking forward to leaving the place then?

        Last time I turned up at a client in a flash car I'm sure it triggered the end of my contract. I even got a few green eyes at the next place when I'd replaced it with an older BMW 5 series, until I pointed out it only cost a bit more than 10k. Obviously I never told them how much 'a bit' is.

        Motto: Never turn up in a better car than the guy that's authorising your renewal.

          ... 'cos I'm staggeringly jealous. Plus I doubt I could get tow child seats in the back anyway, even if I HAD the money.

          Out of interest, what is the insurance costing you?

                    Not planning any jaunts through Europe then?

                    Had an R8 behind me on a packed M25 yesterday - Not sure about those LEDs for sidelights, but I guess that doesn't bother you when you're driving it...
