So you'll be seeing me in one of these soon









































Oh, and whilst I was at it, I thought these looked quite nice, so you'll probably see me in one of these




























Oh, and I was getting into the swing of it I thought about it for a week, and then decided I just had to have one of these on my drive



















And then I thought, heck, I've worked hard, so I'll also have to put one of these in the garage overnight.






I think I need to go and lie down now!

Trackday where you get to drive them all?

Even you are not mad enough to splash that much cash all at once on all those cars instead of getting a 2nd hand hypercar and adopting less depreciation.


Plus, I know you think the Vantage is ugly.

The one car I nearly bought instead of the M400. Decided I needed to have my fun in wild format first and the waiting list was shorter for the Noble. Or so I thought rolleyes

Joust is this a wind up?

after all those rants about "What have they done to the front end" and the seeming inequitable approach to "old" vs "new" customers I never thought I'd see you go near an AM!!?

or are you merely joining a performance car club?

1. You're off to work for Top Gear, Evo or similar
2. You've bought shares in 'Matchbox' cars
3. You've been smoking again......;-)

I still don't like the AMV8, but decided the odd trip in it would be bearable from the inside. I'm pretty certain I'll be bored of it, so I'll change to the DB9, but a DB9 is still grating aginst me being too young to drive one.

The F430 will probably be used mainly for long trips to France or similar, but I'm uncertain about that one.

The Lambo, I think I'll just use that occasionally to pop to the shops.

The BMW, well, I had to get something to keep Nick quiet.

As for why I've done this, well, the job lot came up in an offer that was just too good to refuse.

Oh, and before Lee worries, the M15's still got a space waiting for it (ah, the joy of two houses and a new extension with built in 3 bay garage evil)

I think Joust is just setting this up to beat that other ridiculous string (something about burning Ferraris?) which currently stands at 570 posts. Now opened up to get all the air-heads for AM, Lambo, BM as well as Ferrari laugh

You git.
Was thinking of another aquisition but decided 3 cars was enough.
Now not so sure.
Do like the look of the AM and F430 but also have a hankering for a 612 Scaglietti

Enjoy mate - here for a good time etc.
