I spoke with a friend tonight about that very question.
The answer is when you spend ££ over a long period of time it does not feel the same; it's as if it just "gone", “spent”. Lets just say the motor and box is "expensive" The entire car, I do not want to think about it. But the real question is do I like it?

The answer is simple

Hell yeah


Every penny and every hour


Alan

Congratulations Alan, a stunning looking wolf in sheeps clothing. Looks like all the effort was well worth it. Look forward to seeing it in the flesh sometime.

By the way, very small thing but if you're still missing the centre caps for Fuch's Roger Bray has the ones you need!

Cheers

Looks gorgeous Alan - bet you're really chuffed with it.

Forgive my ignorance but what is an "SS 3.2" - 3.2 out of a supersport?

That engine just looks beautiful

Only just got mine back and starting to enjoy it - looks a lot like your car's fatter brother!

Cheers

Sounds good.

Does anyone know a place where you can host short movies? and then do you just link to it through a URL? also is there any shareware about that can be used to alter (ie shorten) a movie clip?

Thanks again for all your kind words.

if you email me your movie I can compress and convert it to mpg or wmv or whatever. As for hosting I don't know, but if you find somewhere let me know.

Alan,

Not sure I can handle the jealousy anymore though. First it was Steve Wright's banshee and now this. :bom:

Hi Alan - we met a couple of times when I picked my car up form Nick. Hope all is well. Your car looks stunning. How loud's the exhaust? :)
