It's like a Gentleman's club inside. Only thing missing is a pipe-rack! :)
All good things come to those who wait. I'm really impatient which explains a lot.

    Those replies both made me nearly spit my G&T out. :lol: My drink of choice since this morning :P
    The 'wood' pictures were from the original AT advert, which has gone (obviously). I am hesitant to take new ones because of the barrage of abuse I will get........actually I don't care. I will show you my wood tomorrow pvr :D

    Difference between dark and hard? It gets dark every night.

    Difference between light and hard? You can get to sleep with a light on.

    That looks fantastic. :thumbsup:

    And it's a much rarer car than an M6 or M3 as well which is an added bonus.

    I hope you do add some photos of the wood - firebobby would love that!

    All you need to now is enjoy it. :driving:

    My 15 year old daughter had a sit in the car this evening and said "it's really posh but a bit old fashioned". I said "well it is 13 years old"; she said "no it's all the wood stuff, looks like an old house, and it has an ashtray in the back". God love her :lol:

    That made me laugh!

    Some years ago my nephew got an E46 325ti Compact SE with beige leather and wood trim. His OH at the time chistened it his "Granddad Car". :lol:

    And now my daily is an E90 330iSE with beige leather and wood trim - but then I am getting on a bit. :roll:
