Just tell her you have an opportunity to buy one of the last ever made Defenders, as it's your last chance you put your deposit down as it would have been snapped up if you didn't.

Come clean, it will give her time to get over it before the new one arrives Bow down Idea Shocked Very Happy

Never tell the truth. She won't believe you whatever you tell her anyway!

You won it in a raffle!

I think coming clean is probably the best idea, but not until it's sat on the drive Whistle I did this with my RR Sport it was the same colour as the previous one except this one had a black roof it took her two weeks to notice even though the interior was cream leather and the old one black Rolling with laughter

"treps" never never never register a car in her name, I made that mistake with her little Convertible Golf and although I wouldn't be seen dead in it she thinks it's hers and I paid for it Big Cry 1998 90 50th Anniversary 4.0 V8

Just need to sell my 90 HT with a lot of toys on Big Cry


I too am weak, we've just ordered an Adventure in orange. Life is short and all that...

During my phoning around, I found 4 available in Scotland, but had to go a wee bit south to get an orange one, there's stock out there so no need to pay over the odds. Also, registration will be 1st March, bonus! Current Steeds:

I do have a slight problem I need to work on and any suggestions are welcome................I haven't told the wife yet, I know she wont mind Embarassed but it's going to cost me a fortune as she tries to get her own back. Whistle
I think the best idea is not tell her and see if she notices Rolling with laughter


Well she knows and hasn't really talked for a few hours, which in my book is a good thing Laughing

The other good news is I got a discount on the new Adventurer how about that it was a massive £100 Rolling with laughter I also had a phone call from another dealer saying they had a white 90 Adventurer and were putting the price up to £45k if I was interested.

So all in all a good day new Adventurer paid for and being collected next week after dealer Waxoil and rear NAS step and tow bar fitted Razz wife not talking Thumbs Up what more can a man want. Rolling Eyes 1998 90 50th Anniversary 4.0 V8
