Funny how no-one has yet spotted this is nowt to do with Zip's Mrs wanting a new car

And that's some grippy rubber sticking that M3 to the ceiling (pic 4 post 43)

There is an F pace on our drive...it's not really that big at all.Quite nice really!

New Mrs, preferably of the easy-going scrubber variety, who'll be happy with a second-hand 1.2 Fiesta?




Well, someone had to say it

When my wife changes her car we have the apparently unpopular idea that she should get what she wants rather than what I want her to have.
If you're a one car family then that's a different but if it's a car for her then let her pick it herself. This wouldn't suit control freak husbands of course.

Id probably say ZIp let her get that M3, Test drive the CP version and when you order it try get some rare colour, not sure how they get this colour but Marshall of Scunthorpe had one in, they called it Porsche green

I saw one of these not so long ago, looked absolutely awesome in the flesh, marmite colour shouty, they also had the CP wheels dipped Gloss Black

I haven't seen any bragging, just someone who is fortunate to be able to buy cars out of reach of many, and coming to ask fellow petrol heads for advice.

I can't believe either that noone has demanded pics of the woman in question yet. I knew standards were slipping around here, but this really is plumbing new depths.

Well done you.
Hen pecked are we?

Sometimes, I have to drive 'her' car.
Perhaps you're happy driving your wife's pink throbbing Ka, but that's not what I'm about, thanks.


As it is, we drove the Alfa last week and it knocks the M3 into a cocked hat.
Seemingly, the Alfa is what she wants.

More pressing matters have arisen though, as she now wants to change the Forester for something newer, so I'm off to look at the XV and also a Vitara.
Want a 4wd and either of these fit the bill.


Sorry to the Scouse c u nt if me buying another car comes across as **** like, but to be honest, I couldn't give a flying **** what she thinks.

Think you need to go to specsavers I was all over that on the first page but had to make do with a description.

But maybe he declined because I live in the same town and went to the same school as Zip... so maybe he's worried I've already been there or might go there.

I was 3/4 years before you mate... back in the days before they let the riff-raff in remember it used to be a posh girls school... that said though... there weren't many of my type in there either... I ended up with a horsey type from Derbyshire Posh birds like a bit of rough.

There's some $hit parking going off there....******* Porsche owners..
Tried her with the Macan - no go.
Didn't realise a new one was coming either.

I ended up with a horsey type from Burton Joyce.
Thankfully the horses ended up as glue.

I know, the Macan needed to square up a bit
