Epic trip Andy, can't wait to see it in the flesh! :thumbsup Must make the hard work seem worth it when you see the fruits of your labour. Maybe one day if I ever stop pouring money into this house :roll: :damnfunny

Wish I had the spare money to buy your twin. Love the yellow, would have gone for the yellow mudguards as well.

http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/4117596.htm. Fantastic spec, and a bloody good price. Mega wings. Does Verian love me enough? Actually have the money, but we intended to leave the investments to the kids, but they earn enough already and their salaries will shoot up in the next few months, so reckon now we will spend it on ourselves.

Never noticed Jamie's old car when it was up for sale, probably just as well as it would have been hard to resist the best Elise package that I have ever seen, even if it is an S2.

Interesting that the original engine gave up
Sounds like they did belt and braces on it now
Enjoy PT!

I drove the last one in frolic Tut stylee (foot attire wise, not cone launching in to fields)

Got a chance to play with it at the airfield today....jesus its fun. Squirrels getting liquidated left right and centre and tyres starting to look even more worn....well its nearly done 200 miles.

This car no-one else gets to drive, but i did take some pax's out round the runway and mother of god its fast! Common questions ranged from the perma giggling to the astonished.

Learnt one thing though, tyres need to be warm before stepping on the brakes properly, as it has a habit of punishing you otherwise - some cracking sideways moves, and bloody hell was the adrenalin pumping...properly pumping...didnt even feel tired when i was out in it! Its like speed for petrolheads :damnfunny

What a genial car- roll on first track session

Sideways - but then you could say that about the dry also :damnfunny

If the weather looks gash for that trip i suspect the GT3 might be coing out to play, but hopefully I'll get some sleep between now and then and grow a set :mrgreen:
