I must admit I did expect an andrew or andrewD along shortly. Now that's better. We can keep it all in one place and keep the other threads clean. Good man.

Oi, don't drag me down to "his" level. Nowt to do with me

stay on topic please grandad

He's a pistonhead celebrity, I like his contributions, if I wanted facts I'd be on Wikipedia.

Well for what its worth (I don't post that often so probably not a lot) GRBF430F1, I don't always agree with everything you write but I always find it entertaining and I think you're entitled to your opinions as much as the next guy. You've clearly got some awesome cars and good on you for that, but more so to your response to this thread, I think you come out of this looking very good....

He seems a good bloke but that Mclaren will bite him in the a55. We need to know what he paid for it so that in a years time we can do the maths and establish the size of the bite mark!

That he will never divulge same as with his other cars. So he can crow on about having made a profit despite asking prices having not moved.

And GRB, let's see a picture of them all together.

Can't knock the fellas enthusiasm however every thread on here ends up being about how his latest purchase is the biggest and best ever, the months on end bigging up the PET was particulary annoying.
Followed by the scud ....
Followed and continuing with the 650

[mwstewart]

Keeps integrity when under fire but I am sick of reading about value projections.

We've been lucky, he got bored with the Porsche section some months ago.

imagine he couldn't keep up with apollo (although strangely apollo never posted a picture of 'his' jet)

He is an annoying attention seeking peasant who frequents these forums far too much....

Errr isn't that most modern Lambo owners you're describing there?

I thought the idea of buying a Lambo was because you all loved it's attention seeking abilities yes?

If you wanted a fast 'discrete' car you'd have brought an RS6 right?


Anyhow, I had a quick read of GRB's posts and I think he's quite a sound chap. In fact he's perfect for Pistonheads, long may his exploits continue!

GRB, this thread will only be right if you post about your cars, the really good red one.... Don't be shy now..

[TISPKJ]

Not forgetting the instant profit the dealer offered you

[Jules360]

Perhaps we could have a weekly mark to market of the portfolio ?

I wish he'd use 'have' instead.

Sorry but he's an annoying, bragging, money obsessed bore that needs to get out and drive his cars instead of worrying about their future value and spending every minute of the day posting the same nonsense on every car forum he can find.

I'm convinced his car choices are purely based on whatever forum he hasn't joined yet.

Je suis GRBF430F1.

Wow PH really has sunk to a new low with this.....I thought that people that worked for their money and bought nice cars would be less childish but seems not!

It's a bit of fun and I think GRB is very entertaining, just don't want a thread about oh I don't let's say HURACANs or I don't know 458 SPECIALEs to become a repeat converstaion of I'VE JUST BOUGHT A (RANDOM CAR NOT IN THE THREAD) It's brillant and that's whythe [insert HURACAN/458 SPECIALE] isn't.

Much better to have a thread called '[MY NEW CAR] IS brilliant and I bought it just right, and keep it in there. Just an observation.

[GRBF430F1]

Guys, appreciate all the nice and not so nice comments but can we drop the thread ? I'm feeling like some jumped up Premiership footballer or celebrity here.
In a minute I will be on some stupid reality show winding everyone up and getting them thrown out of the jungle

Believe it or not I'm not an attention seeker, just love me cars and spend a totally disproportionate amount of money on them to my income
