Treating myself to a 64 reg Nissan Navara pick up to do general hauling jobs (kids, bikes, dog etc).  Collection 1 Sept. 

Managed to convince the salesman that even though I don't own a business I should still get the 20% discount offer - result :-)

Should help keep the miles down on the Bentley (I just love driving it so much - 8k miles since March), plus in V6 guise its well equipped and can pretty much take everything you can throw at it.

Have added it to the family fleet insurance so even wifey gets to drive it LMAO!!

For what it is, it's a really good GT car!  Been up to Scotland to play golf with a mate and it was both frugal on fuel and shifts when it's needed.  As we are about to move into our new build property, it's been priceless for hauling gear as well.  Also makes driving the Bentley even more of a special event when it happens.
And yes, Audi Boy, it's quite fun when you get the rear end out!!
No car changes anticipated for at least a year now, Euromillions jackpots aside of course.
Bentley SUV out in 2016.  Bigger, uglier, and driven by even bigger w*&^%rs - can't wait ;-)
