Collected the new car yesterday and well chuffed went down thursday night left at six got there at six friday the seller gave me a spare bed to have a sleep for a few hours then made me breakfast top bloke. Left his at 11am 430 miles later got home at 7pm tired but happy never missed a beat cruised at 90 all the way and averaged 32 mile a gallon. Sorry but this is the only pic I have so far been raining all day :frown:

A 420 mile journey seems a good start for getting to know your new T5R!! She looks stunning!! Hat off to the seller giving you brekkie!!

That looks almost as tidy as my old T5-R - it's reg. doesn't start "N85 S**" by any chance, does it?
If so, I'll be havin' a word with the guy I sold it to as I was meant to have first option if he sold on again an' I'll be sad if he's reneged on our deal :deal:
Hope you have many happy hours of drivin' up there - Keep it on the black stuff !
