Have you checked a Xmas tree of warning lights didn't materialise today?
At one point I thought he'd broken the window but after I washed about 5kgs of salt off it they are working again now
Campbell they don't like it if you unlock and lock without turning the ignition on.... Sometimes sends the alarm into a tizzy.

That one is stunning. I had a very close look at that one when my brother was picking up his Exige V6, However, plan rejected by the boss on the basis that she thinks it's her turn to get a new car

Yes Lisa has discovered this.
That'll teach her for trying to TWOC it when I'm away.

We've all been there!!
That and not starting it for a while after you get in and a turn off the key results in dead silence and that sinking feeling
(until you press the alarm off button again)

Bollocks, thought that Brandon had assured Campbell that was the only one of that colour in Scotland.

Used to that with the Elise. More the dead silence. And not starting even after hitting the alarm button!
I rather suspect the Evora won't be idle between trips for long >8->

I swim with a guy at lunch who has an elise cup racer in red. I dont know if he was taking the piss but said he had been assured from Murrays that it was the only one of that colour in Scotland.
I never said anything.

We've never made a model called Cup Racer so it'll be the only one anywhere

I was really tempted by the Club Racer even in 1.6 guise. I saw the light just in time.
