Happy New Year all.

Plans for mine - none! I'll pick up a second hand bargain if I find any but next up is start saving for a replacement (that could take quite some time!!!).

HAPPY NEW YEAR
2008 I can't believe it, I'm getting so old (24 this year)

Car tax due Jan
I'm fitting my Xenons when they arrived, left the warehouse on Monday
Oil & Filter change in March
Black Gloss Door Trims (March possibly)

Suspension is a maybe but it's more of an if rather than what or when

The problem with me is, I tend to change my car when I get bored of it...no car yet has lasted more than 15months in my possession. So I spend all this money on a car, and sell it 12 months down the line.

Don't think I'll bother spending any money on the car until I know what I'm doing with it...the way the fuel prices are going, don't think I'll be able to keep it for too long. I only get 225-300 miles from a tank and it's 110p per litre, expensive.

HIDs4U emailed me the other day to say there is a delay due to customs & excise problems getting the right parts into the country. Mine left the warehouse on monday so depending on how they were posted should be here pretty soon. I wouldn't worry too much, if you've heard nothing by the end of next week start pressing them!
