thats like bmw putting reverse parking sensors on their cars for the women drivers out there
there was a male at the last meet that had reverse parking sensors on his 480!!
i'm not saying who though, for fear of reprisal (hint, he had a big welsh flag in his boot!)

That would be me! And the parking sensors are to help me park close enough to the car behind when parallel parking, I always park to far away because I think I’m going to hit what ever is behind me. It was the thing I was worst at when learning to drive so back off :badmood:

And I drive an auto, but the parking sensors are on the manual

Is the plan still the State bar at 7 on sat night? Is the plan to go out for a meal or eat before? I am heading up at 6 tommorrow morning so i will not be able to check my emails or the forum so i am just checking that nothing has changed or going to change because i will have no way of getting in touch with anyone.

Cheers

Hey guys

Just thought i would let you know that the thought was there, i did pop into the state bar (altho i was a little late - about 7:30pm) and it was pretty busy, it also occured to me only when i got there that i have no idea what anyone looks like! so maybe next time i'l think ahead and do somehing sensible like pm someone my mobile number first! Hope you all had a good nite, i'm sure i'l run into some of you in glasgow befire too long anyway.
