Thinking Of An Auto
You had a man? Is there something you'd like to tell us indian? :p :D [sneaky edit there mate ;)] Only kidding. I had an auto before my manual, and I do kinda miss it sometimes. It's by far the best auto box I'd ever driven so certainly don't rule a good car out just because of that.

What the hell is this in my car?
There was a rather expensive cherry wood Japanese pool cue in the boot of my first TT, which was nice :D Only screws and fluff in the NA though :(

Best driving song?
Anything by Pantera makes my right foot a fair bit heavier , but for posy cruising in the summer, it's gotta be 'Summertime' by Jazzy Jeff and the Fresh Prince - CLASSIC :cool:

Buying a Clio diesel - what to check?
My mum had one - and fook all ever went wrong with it TBH!! It was a 1995 petrol automatic - but it's the only frame of reference I've got I'm afraid :wack:. She had it for years and it only ever broke down once - when I borrowed it!! - and that was the fan belt had snapped. Not particularly informative, but HTH dude :D

waters broke
Hope all goes well mate, you'll remember this day for the rest of your life :)

Auto tt vs NA Manual
Well, I had an auto twin turbo, and I've now got a manual NA - and I much prefer the manual NA for the following reasons:- 1. Although the auto is the best auto box I've ever used, the manual box is a more involving drive, and thus more rewarding, particularly when twatting it round the country lanes ;) 2. The NA is less stressful to own - when on a budget like me - as it is more reliable, and easier to live with (no essential warming up and cooling down). More an every day car really. 3. Totally irrelevant to you but my NA is a SWB slicktop, so the chassis is much tighter and it handles like a dream! I made the educated decision to change to the new car after owning a TT Z for a year or so. If it's high speed thrill you wants - go for a TT (auto or manual). If you wanna own a Z on a budget, the NA manual will still give you a huge smile. Hope this helps.

Shiny tips
I went with 'letterbox ovals' because, as said earlier, they go well with the shape of the lights: - I had very similar pipes on my old TT too :D

Off to the States.... AGAIN!!!
I know I've only just been to Las Vegas, but that was a surprise gift, and this is a pre-planned/financed holiday! :tongue: So, I'm out of here again, for a couple of weeks this time, off to Orlando for our hols. I'll be back online on'Star Wars Day' (May 4th) and I'll be checking in before I leave in the early hours of tomorrow morning (it'll give me something to do at the airport too). I have contacted the Central Florida Z Club to see if there's anything going on while I'm there, but there is only one event and that's on Saturday (our first day there) and it's about 100 miles from Orlando - so I don't think I'll be going to that one :(. But I'll keep my eye out for Z's and hope fully get some pics :D And before you ask - NO!! I won't bring back any parts for anyone :p :wack: So, look after the place while I'm gone - feed the fish, make sure you eat properly, and no wild parties. :nono: :D :rofl: (That's what my parents used to say to me when they went away!!) Laterzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
