Like Rosskins I just got a Tomahawk ;)

I didn't really have that long aniticipation, saw the advert for Red at 10:30am, was driving home in it at 4:30pm :)

Enjoy Sparky, you're getting a helluva motor there, have a great day :thumbsup:

You lucky thing. I got a second hand Raleigh Tomahawk! When I picked Zeddie up from Derby, I still remember this feeling very well and went through Buxton and up to the Rossendale valleys, just south from Mr Wilks! With the roof down in December - it was a sunny but cold day! :D Great memories, good luck with your drive, take it easy, I am sure you will enjoy and soak it up! :thumbsup:
My younger sister had a Raleigh 'budgie' the same at. At least that's what I think it was called.

Enjoy the drive back and savour it! A great car you have got yourself

Don't worry Mr Wilkes, I am sure somebody will give you a lift in October.

Your quite right! Slippery little suckers as they say. Thankfully nothing too untoward and home safe.
