Plus a couple of purples & NMYs & a few more reds.

Fun yes but not too warm with the roof down - although positively Carribean when compared to Donington in March :roll:

My daughter has an MGF VVC and boy can that girl go some speed in it. (I hate to admit it, but she can beat me sometimes!!!!) Some days we go for a drive, we have a few little races around the country roads and also on the A45 when it's clear! ;-)
