As you're probably aware, I bought the car through Millenium Heroes and have to say what an excellent service they give. Very relaxed and not like the normal garage experience..plus some fantastic cars to drool over.

Was very nervous, or maybe even scared, of the SMG but tried it in auto to start with. after 2 minutes took a Man Up pill and used the paddles, never looked back!!

Off to the garage now to have a drool over the bonnet

Did Sir Gareth of Bartlettshire check your car over?

No mate.

I spoke to him re the car and he said although he knew it he hadn't worked on it. He was aware though that it had been well looked after.

The floor has a certificated repair from Elms and a FSH and tbh is virtually immaculate.

It's in with him tomorrow for a once over.

cool .. proper headlights too

And breathe.

Took Cesil into Bartletts this morning for one of Gareths health checks.

Nervous? Me?..nooooo, never

Was pacing about like an expectant father, they were thinking of charging me for a replacement carpet in reception.

Apart from a broken exhaust hanger, it passed with flying colours and to quote Gareth, "it drives beautifully and you've bought a good un".

Had oil service, 4 uprated head light bulbs and new rear brake pads and I had a grin a mile wide

Had a few hours out this morning with a guy called Adam Ball from the MiniFoo forum, he's a bit useful with a camera.

Thing is, no matter how many pics are taken, I don't think they can do a Cesil justice.

Fab images

CSL in front of Power Sation gates is a corker...

Matt would be chuffed with that frame.

Lovely pics. Maybe Adam, if he is around can take a few of us together on the 1st June.
