First car Ann had after we got married was a 216GTi (not convertible) great car to drive and reasonably quick in its day too. I ran a 216 GTi for about 3 years in the early 90’s. A white, 5 door, H reg. Can’t recall anything ever going wrong with it. It even earned me a court case at Perth for spee...

When I was in Aston Martin the weekend before it went into administration, I was informed that the Aston dealership had one of their bumper year with sales. I know your 'it' refers to Leven, but this is one car company that looks to be having a tough time. The Leven dealership might be saying that ...

Thanks for the comments. I went for a wee run this afternoon too, Campbell. Heated seats were a nice new feature to have today. I see what you mean - the subject header could be misleading. Wonder how many clicked on this thinking Lotus had announced a replacement for the Evora! Yes George, I got th...

Sold the Evora about a month ago. Wasn’t until it was gone and I started looking more seriously for a replacement that I appreciated how difficult it was to find something I really wanted.

I agree the lower end prices seem to have taken a hit the last couple of months. Which is frustrating as I toy with putting my own up for sale. Just fancy a change as never held onto a car this long (>3 years) but only thing delaying me is what to get instead. The number of owners wouldn't bother me...

Congratulations - looks great.

This afternoon on the High Street.

I quite like it.

Eight months. Amateur hour. I chased my claim following a bodged engine install by a garage through my credit card. The Financial Services OMbudsman are a very difficult organisation to deal with. At one point they gave me compensation for not giving me any updates. Then didn't give me any more upd...
