Re: A Year with a Classic Alfa - NLC
Looks like you have managed to bag yourself a great car and with your friends experience/garage means you will have less sleepless nights. Always fancied a classic Alfa but after seeing Harry Metcaffe's experience with his Lancia Fulvia, kind of scared me off classic italians. Been there with the La...

Re: Treadmills
We bought a treadmill a couple of years ago and ended up with a NordicTrak (https://www.nordictrack.co.uk/) and iFit subscription. Since we have had the treadmill other parties like Peloton have jumped into the game. Our model is discontinued - however as we went for a reasonable spec one we do not ...

Re: £100k Emira
Did not surprise me with the number of deposits down, there will always be someone willing to part with their allocation and make a profit. Been a long time since some people have thought about paying overs on a Lotus, which shows that Lotus have hit the look of the Emira spot on [emoji16] Sent from...

Re: Exige V6 prices
Don't want to thread drift but stock is an issue for dealers, even know of a dealer who went to Spain to pick up an Evoque.
Due to Brexit the expats are finding it is costing a fortune to register their uk cars.

Re: Dealers
Strange times, due to the lack of stock of both old and new cars they do not have to try very hard and dealers have become pretty arrogant.
Got exactly the same response when I was thinking of a Toyota GR Yaris and Toyota Edinburgh Newbridge never bother calling me back.

Re: It’s time...
Looks lovely in red.
Presume it has had protection film applied as can imagine stone chips will show up easily on a red car.

Re: New for old
Myself, Steve and James were chatting to a couple on our recent Orkney trip and the woman said her son owned a company and they’d bought up the last batch of Land Rovers from production. “I’m not sure you’ll have heard of them. Twisted.” We had a bit of a chuckle and assured her we knew the company...

New for old
So back in August last year I decided to put the Defender 90 up for sale. I realised that although I it bought new in 2015, there were things starting to niggle me with the bit and bods that needed to be constantly sorted. Everything came to a head when a local Land Rover specialist took it for its ...
