I'm frothing at the mouth. When are u putting it on the road? January? If so, you will need to have the patience of a doctor. On your first drive, when u get it, maybe u could skip over to the big smoke. It'll just take a few hours.

I couldn't leave mine in the garage untill january, so i'm already driving it
And if i had to, i'd be sleeping in it

A 535d teaser that is.
So, didn't you even try it just one time around the block?

Thank you all very much
as explained in an earlier post the reason i have to keep it off the road is because in 2 weeks time it will be registered in 2005 giving it a much higher residual value when i go to sell it
i usually keep the cars 18months to 2 years
over here a 31st dec 2004 car is much lower in value than a 1 jan 2005 i know sounds silly but it is the way it is

At least Ireland will see 1st jan approx 5 hours before New York
i was in new york and Huston a few weeks ago great places

If you would have left it in the garage you would have had a '05 car actually that was delivered in 2005. Now when it becomes 2005, its already an "old" car
