Mrs. MJ chose the colour, she likes black because it is 'cool', I would have preferred silver like my previous Omega...

What books do you make her read... :-?

Been tring to get mine to understand the principle of a steam engine in order to at least acknowledge the magnificance of the Mallard at the York Train Museum.... It's a no go though.. :o

Oh well I understand it, and I dragged her around anyway.. I even stood on the footplate of the Mallard, and had my picture Taken

I tend to leave engine size out of any discusion I have with mine, as it only results in ... "I thought it was a 1.6"...
As for the exhuast.. they might as well be 2 drain pipes for all she cares.....

I showed her the Engine mods at the Weekend, to which her reply came...."how much did that lot cost".... >:(

It's great to find some sanity and appreciation of things with Engines on here....

Matt

PS: Type there sorry, I meant insanity... ;D :y

i am still on a misson to get my mum a megga, she really liked my project a.. it was the first Auto she ever drove. And after i finally got her in, she liked it!

She's small at 5ft1 but the driving position was very good for her, good distance from the wheel, in my facelift the dash is differnt and the position was much worse for her.

She liked the power of project A's V6 power  ;)

Agreed, and she like dual climate so she can be warm and I can be normal...

Obviously, the colour of the car, and the spec of the stereo is important to any chick...

Last Friday I picked up the wife and three of her pi**ed up whittering mates from thier Christmas do (make a note not to do it next year) and the girls in the back where going on "ohhh what a lovely car" well that was it the wife was "if you press that button there it will heat the rear seats and this button here is the rear blind" which made me laugh because if I mention anything car to her she looks at me as if to say "do I look bothered" ;D
