Superb.


Fraser took me round in his at KH a few years back. Not fast overall (compared with an elise) but so much more fun to drive and there wasn't 20 -30 years of a gap between them either!

I foolishly turned down the offer of driving the car - I couldn't have lived with me if I had gone off - even into the gravel.

I'm not sure - I've not seen or heard from him or Marrianne in ages - think the last time I spoke to Fraser was at the "run up the hill" event that Lawrence organised last year.

Looks fantastic, just the motivation I need to get mine sorted and back on the road.

Might ask you to take the odd photo of bits I’ve forgotten how to put back together.
