BV58 R** was supposed to be delivered to my dealer 2 weeks ago for storage until the first of the month. Despite them calling it over from the Factory as soon as it was released from production, it hasn't arrived.
They have two weeks, so I'm not a worried YET !! "To finish first, one first has to finish ...."

Saw a Stornoway MY09 towing a tintent today on the M40...
I am amazed to say....
It looked pretty damn good for a caravan
But...
I was surprised after seeing all the pics of the new stylee D3 and not liking them too much that I was actually very impressed with the new painted plastic bits and the rear bumper. The front looks far better.
Still not convinced its the best way forward for the D3 for those that do go off road, but as mild face lift to an already excellent design, it works.

Sleepless yes, I had forgot the amount of bits I have added in two years. It's going to take flippin ages to put it back to standard before she goes
Dealer has been superb throughout, considering they didn't get to supply the original "duf-un and that's the dealership as a whole and the individuals. If anyone want's a good Midlands dealership - Trinity is up there. If it's a quick job there is the Marina pub on-site, many have dropped in when Ben was doing the window tinting over the summer.
Ivan - if you are reading this - throw a full set of Mats in, there's a good chap "To finish first, one first has to finish ...."
