Well folks, my car was delivered today, and what a kerfuffle it was.. Deliery truck got stuck in my underground car park.. lol

Anyway, the delivery driver already said he wants to buy it off me, but I said give me a chance I havent driven it properly yet

Its absolutely peeing down with rain, so will have to wait for some dry weather and the builders to modify my driveway so I can get the car back out again.. lol

Welcome to Cyprus

Well done mate, bet it's a weight off your mind, now it's safe in your garage, and not in the hands of a shipping co.

Bet you can't wait for a dry day. Don't forget the sun screen though!

Fastest hire car in Cyprus then?

Good to hear your pride and joy made it ok G. Can't keep your hands off modifying something already.. that's what I like to hear! (even if it is a driveway!)

That'll be this years rain then

Have fun!

If you are coming to nicosia, drop me a u2u, and you can pop around for a beer/coffee etc

I will be taking some video once the car is re-registered and on the road... Need my landlord to sort my driveway, as the car has insufficient ground clearence to make it out at present, delivery lorry had to do it for me yesterday.. and he nearly got stuck.. lmao

Have you made contact with Chris Michael. He's got a MAC#1 built MK which he uses as a daily driver.

He might be a useful source of local info

Visit www.m1moc.com and go two thirds of the way down the owners page for pics.

You may even recognise where the photos were taken...........
