A very sad day

Chat about all things Bonneville (and related cars). Off-topic stuff should be in the lounge, and all mechanical problems should be posted in the proper forum.

I hope you got what was necessary out of her. [Wanting one is not as important as having one one. Good luck in your GXP search.

Are pontiacs a big hit in England? Are they seen as prestigious, or luxurious or rare or all of the above?

Wow. GXP's are all they're cracked up to be. I'd highly recommend one.
