Can you help me with my bucket list?

[The_Blue_Dragon]

Hi people,
I'm back Now the weather is clearing up a little I'm hoping to start trying to tick more of my bucket list off. I've not had chance to do much as In November last year I had knee surgery so been unable to drive. I also had to move out of my family home after a family disagreement so had a lot on my mind.

On the good news side I am now engaged and happily living with my fiancée in her parents home (currently trying to get our own place). Also it appears my surgery went well and I'm slowly getting easier to walk and can now drive again as I couldn't drive straight after the op.

Anyway if anyone feels they could help me please let me know how. Unfortunitily although I can drive I can't drive too far 30miles round trip max from Sheffield. So if you live further it would be great if you could either drive here or meet somewhere.

Anyway here is a link to my website again. Anyone who helps will get added to my website and if you own a business I will add your logo. www.dans-garage.co.uk/bucketlist.php

If you find yourself in London I'll take you for a tunnel run in the 430.

Thank you for the offer it sounds great but due to my surgery I can't travel far at the moment. After like 60miles I have to lay down for a few hours to straighten my leg otherwise it just locks up

Blue Dragon, on the website list you have an entry at No 30. It should read "Write off a car" but it actually reads "Right off a car".

Pedantic I know but I feel compelled to point it out.

Sorry.

[The_Blue_Dragon]

Thanks, I'm rubbish with spelling and grammar. I prefer people that tell me rather than laugh so don't worry about it hahaha. I've actually removed that one now as my family always get upset about it, although I didn't mean kill myself in a car lol

Acknowledging your difficulty in travelling at the moment, if you do find yourself down in London I would happily take you for a (loud!) blast in an F-Type R to tick off the Jaguar box on your list.

I'd just like to thank Tony for an amazing day. I received an email this morning saying that if I could get to Manchester I can go for a spin in his Lamborghini Diablo SV. I set straight off on a 1hour journey with my fiancée.

When we got there I saw the most beautiful sight, The one car from my childhood I'd always loved and never thought I'd ever see (a yellow Diablo). I feel bad now but I left my fiancée in my car while I ogled over the piece of art. Once I'd some how managed to get in we set off for an amazing ride. I loved seeing people turn round after hearing the engine.

After a bit we parked up so we could take the following pictures

I plan on visiting Germany at some point as at some point I'd like to do a road trip through Europe, just got to wait for my legs to get stronger.

The scary part about visiting Tony in Manchester is that on the way back my phone which I was using as Satnav went flat and I had no idea where I were or how to get home. I ended up using my fiancées phone to call my mum to get directions. But the only way she knew was to follow signs to Leeds then hope for signs saying "M1 South" haha. Long drive but eventually managed it

[The_Blue_Dragon]

Quick update. After a member contacted me from on here saying he has a mate who can help me I soon received another email from a guy with a Bumblebee Camaro offering to take me out. So on friday I'll be going for a spin.

I'm really excited

Just been for an absolutely amazing ride in a Chevrolet Camaro 6.2ltr v8 "Bumblebee". Just an amazoing roar from the engine

[The_Blue_Dragon]

Earlier today I received a call from a guy who asked if I was up to anything and if not would I like a spin in his Ferrari California. It didn't take me long to reply saying "no" hahaha.
