Great looking Clubbie! Congrats
Thanks for the suggestions, keep them coming Some names I have been kicking around are: Sway, Moya, Serenity, or Zhaan..... I'm leaning towards Sway or Zhaan, but I am going to wait until I get to drive her to decide

Thanks for all the congrats, I'm so happy; I will be even happier when I have the keys

I am envious (British Racing) green; UK domestic delivery production (including US delivered here in the UK) were apparently the last ones produced before the factory shut down this morning for the next month as all the export ones appear to be on boats or trains already.
Took the check in on Thursday and the other SA (mine is on holiday for 2 weeks) didn't seem to be overly concerned (but then it isn't his car). It goes to a dealer in Bury St Edmunds for prep and, at least for now, it could be another 2 weeks before I see mine.

Man, I feel for you OldLoad, I'll keep my fingers crossed for you. Why could it be another two weeks?

Not sure of all the reasons; there is registration paperwork for US Visiting Forces which includes tags but at the end of the day, I think it's just the British love of process.

Ya I hear ya there... I think its a Euro thing though, antique processes to do anything and complete lack of customer service Sometimes I really hate Europe...... I think the only reason that its not taking me longer to get mine is due to the fact that I have one of my MA's 128 demos; boy, does he want it back
