Greed...lead me not into temptation!

I have two cars. I am a lucky bloke, my beautiful 850R, and my functional Honda CRV. So why do I still scan the ads then?
And this is closing on Ebay tonight and it looks like it could go really cheap...you know when money burns a hole in your pocket?

Is this one that Justin (T5Lover) or Steve Bower knows - it is in Ashford?

Those ones are lhd jobbies I got en France 2nd hand- had to change from the originals as the car is now Frog reg'd so thought I'd chav it up a bit with them lol. They are loads brighter and better than standard and don't look too bad IMO.

PMSL! The picture in the sig that states.... "Gun metal grey" directly underneath it? lol
Tbh it's a strange colour in as much as it can be a number of different shades depending on the lighting, can't ever get bored of it. It has often been called black but never blue... I personally prefer the colour of it in the dusk light as that's when it looks best imho. I can look black as well if it's pitch black ;)
Yeah a meet up with a few of us sounds good, bring your boxing gear :mad111:

Depends if the life expectancy goes up much more. As currently it only gives you about another 40-50 years...unless I get hit by a bus in the mean time.
