Just got back! What an awesome night!
Thanks to everyone for turning up :)
Pics are sure to come very soon as so many people had cameras tonight 8)

Sorry if we kept wanting to talk about the Renesis conversion in your NC :P

Nice drive to round it off too - especially since it's our last chance before double demerits start at midnight tonight :wink:

Yup, great night. Thanks for organising everything Les. Was nice to meet Danny and show him around Perth a little bit.

I hope he get back in time for the red eye flyer to Brissie. :mrgreen:
If you had access to a car like this, would you take it back right away? Neither would I.

It was an absolute pleasure to meet you all tonight! :D Thanks to Les and Dave for arranging the get together. Yummy dinner...cheers Les :wink: ....and a most enjoyable drive around the city sights.....not forgetting the tunnel run 8) . PM me your e-mail address Les and I'll send the vid through...shrunk it to 5mb.

If any of you ever travel to Brisbane and have some time to spare, drop me a PM so that I can return the hospitality.

Made it back to the airport in excellent time Dave. :P ...plane's late as usual...delayed departure by 20 mins!!!! :|

Cheers,
Danny

Awww thanks Grump :oops:

It's very nice to get a compliment since the interior was done nearly 10 years ago :mrgreen:

The interior is mostly tan leather from Connolly Leather (UK) except for the black steering wheel and Sparco Roadster seats.

I used to have an entire matching interior with Recaro SRIII seats and MOMO Shuttle steering wheel all re-trimmed in the same Connolly Leather. Seats were sold off many years ago.

Connolly Leather made such a great product and time has shown is worth. Such a pity they have since stopped trading a few years ago :(

*edit* I must be a Ninja because I did not appear in any of the photos above :lol:
My skills are formidable LOL

Slight aside, dropped my phone off at Optus this morning because I had insurance on it and it should all get fixed.

I did a little research on Mr. Google and seems it's a pretty common problem.

http://forums.whirlpool.net.au/forum-replies.cfm?t=701923 there's even a facebook support group.

Seems I could also get another screen $40 on ebay and fix it myself if I need to.
