I can't get in touch with a CIA friend to track where you are at, but my brother's British intellegience said that those plates were issued to $2##@$ . . . unless you are registered under another alias . . . Noticed I had a dollar symbols in front and back. heheheheheheee.

I think you can ship a car anywhere. The Queen arranged my air shipment and paid for it. So, I don't know how much it cost. HNY Jeffs.

Please send money. I have to pay the CIA off; the Queen said they are my problem. She does not want an international incident. Have careful fun tonight.

Znod - if you flew your car to London you are quite insane fella !!!. Well done and happy new year to you.
I am a bit pissed and I think I have lost my car in a bet. My sister dropped me and the wife back to our house and has taken the car to her flat. Is it true that Elton John never sings candle in the wind anymore ??? This is going to cost me big time I think.....

HNY. Leave the Corvette home tonight, and be careful whatever you drive. And, yes, the Queen's mechanics are highly skilled and very fast. She had the same conversion done on her 545i earlier this year.

They also removed your tint and replaced the black trim. Darn British . . . don't worry, my CIA friend has tracked you down. At 12:00 AM 1/1/05, meet her at the London bridge (you know, the one in the children songs). She'll be in an Aston Martin DB9, greyish brown. There's enough euro in the center console. Swap cars.

LoL nice Diesel, too bad that they have fitted the pre-2005 model tips on your exhaust, you should complain about that .
I've shipped my car too London too last week, I still find it hard to get used to driving a car with the steering on the right side (left) and on the wrong side of the road (left).
Below is a pic of my car in front of the Hotel (Lancaster Landmark).

My Ride: '04 545iS 6 spd, bought new via eBay, 11/05; Blk/Gry, Cold, L7, PDC, BMW Rear seatcover for pets.
First "Bumwa" was a new 1971 2002. High performance 5s since 1987. Beamer motorcycles too, currently on an 07 BMW K1200 GT; also a Moto Guzzi 1000 SP III.
Sounds more like April than January 1.
