We could organise a local meet, get lots of tasty cars turn up and the lad can pick whhat he wants a ride in?

Attended something similar a few years ago at ellsmere port it was a brilliant day.

We've done something similar in NYLOC for a charity for kids with learning disabilities and it turned into a brilliant morning. Best of luck with it. If you hadn't already got a VX, I'd have volunteered the Elise.

Why organise a special event when you could bring him to this: http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&a... Supercar Meet - 28/02/10&mid=33691 I am sure some of the guys coming would help out smile PM me for details. Plus I'll be driving a Caterham that day so I will take him for a blast!

Not sure which Simon you mean but will help out if I can. Maybe get him to one of our meets in the summer if the Sheffield one's too far - he can have his pick of tasty motors then.

More than happy to help out if I can - I don't normally take too much encouragement to take people for a spin in the Tamora (not literally obviously wink)

I'd be happy to pitch in - but my meagre little Porsche might prove a bit dull after all that throaty TVR noise?
