...as the saying goes Jim, if we all liked the same thing it'd be a boring world!
You really should have taken dad up on his offer to drive HKY (the Prestige) back from the convoy. Certainly characterful - no self cancelling indicators, Diravi steering, much softer than an XM, seats in a different league of comfort ALTOGETHER to the XMs. CXs look much better than XMs too IMO. etc etc etc....
This could easily turn into another FCF 'offtopic' topic and I know there's many XM fans on here, but c'est la vie that we don't all like the same things!
Anyhoo - anyone else thinking of coming? Not long now!

Time-wise, we think we'll probably be there at around 1.00 - 1.30 in time for the convoy to Barry's.
Weather looks promising too, with highs of 17 degrees...!
