Collection day.
Good morning everyone
Can’t believe I am up this early, as I don’t leave until lunch time.
The excitement of collecting a new (to me) car
Will keep you all updated as the day progresses.
It’s going to be a long day, but hopefully a good one.
Don’t expect to be home until late tonight, but will try to pop up a picture or two.
Will be an interesting comparison, as I have thoroughly enjoyed the E85, and appreciate all the help I have received over the last couple of years,with special mentions to Mr Wilks, Mr Tidy,Greg81, and many others.
Have a good Monday guys.
I intend to

Ha ha! You sound like me when I was a kid on the day we were going away on holiday, or at Christmas!
It’s a great feeling. Enjoy the day and especially the drive home.

I Agree.
But unfortunately, the seller is working until 4.30pm, so could not collect any earlier.
A nice drive back under the stars, well you never know.

Up before 5am to collect after 4pm ... it must be a looong way.
Did you press the fuel flap on your E85 to open it? You will on this E89 ... and probably tonight.

Hope all goes well. I collected mine way back in July. I know exactly how you feel. We travelled from Lincoln to Cheltenham and I was up at the crack of dawn. I’m well into my seventies and still enjoy the thrill of a new car. Why would anyone ever want to grow up?
