If Carlsberg made Coupes....... - 15/07/2008 12:09
Finally, I am able to answer one of the most frequently-asked (of me) questions over the past year or so.
Q. When are you getting your Coupe back?
A. TODAY!!!!
That very nice Mr Carl and Mr John set off from the frozen north at some ungodly hour this morning, and just after 8am, C8PPO finally returned home!
It only looks flippin blinkin well blimmin AMAZING!
Th weather is dull here today and I can't drive it to some nice photo-opportunity location until I go and tax it at lunchtime, but I know you lot will be baying for pictures, so here's a little taster. The light outside, the conditions, and apparently my camera don't even go half-way to doing it justice - it looks SOOOO much better in the flesh. But at least this will give you an idea of what, now, if I might be so modest, has to be one of the best Coupes in the country?
Hello!
Looking fabulous
Not a ding in sight!
None here either!
Plenty of work done under here too
Red!
Powder-coated and spotless!
Carl is planning a photo montage of everything from the day it crashed up to today, with all the stripping, repairing and horrors found in between times.
Carl, I just want to say a massive public Thanks to you and John for this. If this turns out to be your Coupe swansong, then as far as I'm concerned, you've gone out on the highest note possible. It's brilliant, and both Juliet and I are absolutely delighted with it.
A Very Happy Cappy.
