Pull the pin.

You will get an answer.

Insist on it being a legally binding answer.

Then, get it independently inspected.

Inform them of this before they deliver the legally binding answer.

Just because it's your private life is no reason not to have your Work Face on...

Well it finally arrived. My Italian Racing Red F Type R is now in my garage just waiting to be washed and then I get to look at it for the next 5 months until the snow disappears and the sand and rocks are cleaned up.

With your stable (and location), I think you need a dyno hooked up to a projector, so you can go racing in your garage.


Glad you finally got the car. Once you get it on the road, all will be forgotten.

Congratulations and hallelujah!

OR...you can drive it and then wash it. (Obviously I'm not aware of weather conditions there but here in Maine - and we're not talking warm and sunny temperatures to be sure - there's bound to be winter days when the sand and rocks and sand are, practically, nil. Obviously you know yourself best but I determined that there's just no way I'm gonna let this, my, car sit for the next 5 months. 5 days, maybe).

Most importantly, congratulations zach05855.

Your car looks great.. mine is the same colour.
Sorry you did not get to drive it before the winter.. you'll surely have a blast with it next spring.

Mine is now garaged as well, our winters here in central Ontario are not as cold as yours but we sure get more snow, at least from the perspective of my memory when I used to live in Calgary.
Lawrence.

I much prefer Calgary winters to eastern regions. Calgary averages just below freezing for the entire winter and generally sunny. The key word is "average"

it's the schizoid temperatures one day sunny and 15c (60F) the next day sunny and -15c (0F), then back to 15c (60F).


But just about everyday it is sunny compared to the eastern regions where it has been cloudy and overcast with snow showers for the past 2 weeks.


And I almost forgot, no sales tax and the lowest income/property taxes in Canada.

But Calgary snow starts in October, way before Ontario.
