Hi guys,

I have a bit of time off next week and was thinking of spending some of the day oogling over supercars, in the hope it will make me work even harder so I can buy one soon!

I am fairly new to Yorkshire and was wondering if you know of any which is worth a visit?
A few that I am aware of are:
Kahn Showroom
Nick Cartwright
Specialist Cars, Malton

Are there any others which are well worth a visit? Please let me know your views and which ones are more welcoming than others etc. Much appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
Cheers
Adam

The Kahn Showroom is very popular with the PH lot, give Tonker a PM and ask him for a tour.

Thanks for your speedy reply! Sounds like a plan to me, the prospect of a tour sounds extremely exciting.
Have you got a link to his profile by chance?

Cheers

Sorry, I was joking, do a search for Kahn on the forums.

Specialist cars would be a good bet, lots of good machinery, there is going to be a breakfast meet up there in October.

Thanks matey! Love the F40 they have in at the moment. My days' holiday is looking like it should be a supercar filled day! Just how I like it. Think i'll pop in there and then Kahn on way back.

Does anyone have any info about the tours they do at Kahn? Can't seem to find any info- or is it just worth contacting them direct?

Cheers

search the Kahn threads (or rather debate) threads of the past- one of their employees is a member who may help.

Ashley111 or something similar is a member on here and works in sales for Khan. I've been round the showroom with him before and he is a sound bloke with plenty of good stock to show off thumbup

Jonty,
Thanks for the heads up. I popped in there recently to have a nose, well worth the visit. That was the plan but unfortuantely my work committments took me sunny Shorpe that day and couldn't make it back in time. Sounds like it was a good meet though and the F355 stole the show! I have the next one in my diary.

Cheers

And believe me, it didn't look any better in real life either. I was waiting for the impact.

Which would have shortly been followed by me swiping that challenge grill if it didn't get bent!

It was close, but you could tell by the throttle position that you knew your surroundings!

Yeah, I suppose I do only have measly 265s on the rear, but Pirellis tend to have a tendancy to not last long anyway! I got the rear end out in the car park, but typically nobody was filming or even looking!
