Hey up folks, anyone else been out enjoying this incredible change in weather.
Took the car out for another spin today, roof down of course.
Found a nice spot and tried to get the best view :

Ahh it'd be so nice if for once it did last .
Having the roof down from 8.30 in the morning till late is something I could get used too...

Might have to invest in some sun lotion cos you really feel the sun with the roof down,
And I don't want to end up looking a bit like this::
