Now just think how much more you could add when you tread the M path :roll:
Get thee behind me Satan :evil: - really watching your posts with interest and would love to join you. After Wales a few weekends ago, in the company of 3 other ///Ms, I remain tempted but prices have gone ballistic! We shall see . . . :| (That's a bit like you were if I remember rightly :lol: )

I was watching & waiting & the concerns i voiced RE the expenses V 3.0 models was relevant to me at the time .
The 6 month work break i took last year made it unviable at the time especially as i wasn't 100% sure what was in front of me :wink: in the end i'm back on the hammer but refreshed , working local so no commuting & looking forward to the summer & especially the M roadtrip into Scotland in 3 weeks time with mrs w
As for the recent purchase ? I can see no downsides as yet other than the VED :thumbsdown: which considering the pluses i will take on the chin
Congrats Paul, welcome to the club
Well done Paul, always like to read about your days out (when the rest of us are slaving away 
) & see the great photos you post

Great purchase for your road trip - another post I'm looking forward to seeing

Thank you Rob - much appreciated comments - you were our first ever contact with the Forum - waving us down on the road and directing us to the campsite at our first National - look where all that led

Always love looking at your photos, not may stratus grey ones on here.
It's a colour I've grown to like very much but it took time to appreciate

To a couple whose presence improves the forum considerably all I can say is keep it up
Thanks Ruth, It feels like a long time since our first Zed - certainly lots of memories. Here's to many more
Congrats, no going back now
It always starts like this ... you have a car, you enjoy it, then you join the forum. Then you see things you were not meant to see and you decided that you needed to have those things as well. Then you smell M ... then there is no turning back, it haunts you in your sleep, the growl. You read about other's journeys who were just a year or so ahead of you :evil:
