Hello everyone!! I cannot believe it is three months since I last posted, I’m not normally flaky - but a lot has happened since - but I was continuing to read the forum (helpfully) and thinking I should respond. But as I say a lot happened and I think my time is becoming mine again
I thank everyone for their comments and genuinely I’m not ‘not’ listening, I think I spent such a length of time looking at things and totally then falling for the Macan, nothing else could compare.
I’ll pick up insurance on another thread - but it’s very high, I think I’d get much criticism, but, I’ve not had to pay insurance ever - it is the hit I’ll have to take because of the car and my stupidity in not sitting my test many years ago.
On a positive note (which was actually a real shocker when I got the email), my build has to be finalised in October - with an estimated Jan delivery. Much earlier than anticipated (6 months earlier), so getting a run around in the mean time, is out the window!! I still haven’t managed to bring my test forward either! But it will be okay.
I eventually told my instructor about the car, and he took the view ‘why not’, it happens to be his dream car, so he’s excited to be able to take it out for a spin
He basically isn’t thinking I won’t be able to drive it, and thanks to the forum, I learnt about the lead time for Silverstone - so I’ve booked the experience day for December and cannot wait. I may book a second one, just to be fully happy
The fun begins in other threads reinsurance, spec and other bits
