I'm in Mickleover mate, so the other side of town.

I'm not really keen on giving details over here of where 2 half million pound cars are...

Paul,

Don't want to know the exact addresses, I just wondered what part of Derbyshire you had seen them in that was all.

I've seen the red one around the villages on this side of town a few times (Willington/Etwall), at GrayPaul and at Donington Park and the black one is from out in the sticks.

Paul,

Nothing exciting I'm afraid. My job means I cover approx 1000 miles a week so I am either driving my Rover 75 Diesel or occasionally my wifes brand new Mercedes A Class diesel.
I am currently looking into buying myself a fun car for the weekends and for occasional work journeys, just can't decide what.

Regards

I've seen you about quite a bit - your car sounds fabulous and looks gorgeous! If you see a red S1 Elise knocking about, then wave - it's me!!!

I've never seen the Enzo's in Mickleover (although I saw a McMerc by Tescos's once), just around the villages nearby.

Incidentally, I saw your car being loaded onto a tow truck in Nottingham a few months back, looked like you were having ground clearance problems with the Low Loader, hope it wasn't serious?

Yea that was a slave/bearing problem. I was on my way to Greypaul but it gave out half a mile away

Gutted mate.

What red is your car as I've never seen another that colour and it looks lovely, especially with the challenge rear grille?

Cool, everybody should have something exciting in their garage for the weekends!

although I have to use the Elise every day..

Hey, shall we change the name to "The Derby thread!" I'm in Derby too!

I had a fantastic drive back from Lambo Manchester in the Gallardo yesterday, probably the best ever.

Shame they haven't fixed the car but you can't expect everything

What's wrong with it?

[bertie]

When you've just started it up and driven to the end of the drive it you dip the clutch and it revs up pulsing between 2500 and 3000 rpm.
At the other end, when manouvering it stalls and won't re-start, eventualy spluttering into life on about 3 cylinders.

Not ideal IMHO.

[ahaughton]

I presume this isn't a common problem with the G's? Has the garage had a few goes at fixing it or was this a first time attempt + fail?

[Mr_C]

one post and all these Derby people come out of the woodwork. There's a few more too who've not posted yet.
