Made it home.

As per the title I made it home! The 150 mile route from Southam to Sutton Coldfield

The 'to do' list is growing and I'll apologise in advance for the amount of questions I will be asking.

Engine runs great(if a little hot in traffic) and there are a few electrical gremlins to sort.

The Bible also arrived today so I'll be studying that over the weekend.

I'm taking the car to TopGear In Wolverhampton on Monday to get an inspection and book a service.

All in all I'm really pleased and think I'll eventually get used to people staring.

Great news mate, nice to hear you are getting stuck in straight away! If you attack the gremlins first then gradually check and improve over time, you will have a Griff that you know will be able to do many miles reliably and of course you with that massive grin on your face every time you drive the beast, believe me it becomes addictive, so be warned!!! Hope to see you at the Growl fella. Rgds, Pete

Enjoy mate they are awesome. Working on them is all part of the fun.

Southam? That's just South of Leamington Spa and is relatively near to Sutton Coldfield. Is their another Southam or did you go the long scenic route home just for the hell of it? Did you buy from Tony Gilbert? I know he's not far from Southam.

Anyway, welcome to Griffith ownership, I'm sure you won't be disappointed. The Griff Growl is a must!

Regards, David.

I notice from your profile that you also have a '58 Vespa. I'm the owner of a '59 Lambretta.

Maybe we should start a splinter group of Griffith / vintage scooter owners......

I took the long way.

Car was'nt from Tony Gilbert but it's been sold by him before. The invoice is in the history.

Anyone on here recognise it or owned it before?
