nope - went last night. thought it was rubbish quite frankly  And the DLR is entirely unable to cope with the number of people trying to get there - they need big long trains like the tube
too much green emphasis for my liking - I made a big point of laughing out loud on the electric car stand - theres some right golf carts out there now 
oh and even at 8.30pm there were still huge queues at the LR track outside Steve N | 2006 TDV6 S Auto in Buckingham Blue | Member of the top ten club | Am I online?

In the flesh, I thought the 2 09 D3s at the show looked good - better than the pics suggest. The only thing that stood out as wrong was the headlamp washer jets - they just look unfinished in bare plastic on a painted bumper, IMHO.

I did prefer the ashtray replacement panel - not sure how long this has been available but will try to fit one in mine - TLO if you read this can you let me know how much they are please

I went to the show on Wednesday and got to say in the flesh I thought it looked good colour coded but those arches are defo going to scratch easily. Global Warming.... I'm luvvin it.

What's with the big gap under the right hand 12v socket?
...you can see right through to the engine!!!
That'll be another bit not put together right for the show cars then. What with different coloured doors and bits that don't fit, it looks like they don't really want to sell these any more?

Looks like they've cpoied those from the Jeep, SWMBO's Commander has cup holders very similar, they work well. I'm not as good as I once was........but I'm as good once as I ever was.

Could possibly be a silly question but you should be used to them from me by now.......
With the Anti Smokers Pack above , does the rubber tray still fit the same ? Don't take life me too seriously ..... it's I'm not permanent
