...because I'm so pleased with my new exhaust

Not only that, but Tony let me drive the Sagaris this afternoon. What a beauty. So smooth and sounds fantastic.


Gotta work on 'Mrs Bomb' now ........and persuade her we 'need' one !!

You know it makes sense

Big thanks to all the guys., (and gals, Jill !,) at 'HHC'.

Yes....the troops at Hexham are very helpful and enthusiastic all round.

Certainly have looked after us over the past few years.

Why not send an application to your local dealer.
(Write it on the back of a £50 note......that may help !)

Yep, Harrogate is more local to me but I was treated badly twice. I swapped my loyalty to Hexham and never looked back. They always have time to help and they go out of there way to get to know people.

....and of course beastieboy (Ricky) is there.

Oh - no! Getting Bomb to test drive a Sagaris!?!?!

Bit like getting Stevie Wonder to test a new pair of binoculars!

I went to see the Sagaris today.

Stunning menacing car.

But there are things that did't appeal.

£50k for an impractical car, more impractical than the current TVR range, is a lot of money.

That said, if money no object - well you know.


Still, I can't wait for the performance tune on my 5 seater - 380hp I hope But its the torque that matters

You're not allowed a more powerful car - Mrs Bomb "might" allow you a more powerful vacuum cleaner though.

But - let me know if you are going for 400bhp jobby so that I know what to buy next.

Realistically, what are the chances of HHC agreeing to a test drive in the Sagaris by someone unknown (a dental collegue of mine) He is young but potentially a serious buyer. Would it help to phone first?

I can't imagine someone just walking in off the street (even after phoning ahead) getting a test drive.

After a bit discussion and if Tony thinks he isn't just another time waster, I'd imagine he'd be allowed a spin round the block with Tony driving. This is how I found it the first time I poked my head in the door.

Well - 993 turbo 4 is a poss, as is a skyline.
But - either will have more BHP than yer 350T, Pug, Hoover and hairdrier together
