Dont think many of you guys know me as I have not been in here for quite some time. I used to have a 500HC that I owned for 5 years. Sold it as I fancied a change and after trying out Caterhams, Elises and tasty Audi's for the last 15 months. Have decided to come back to what I know best. Really regret selling me motor now, mainly as it was a really lovely example at the time. And I had poured hours of tinkering into it to get it perfect for me. So hunting again for a nice one to play with.

So. Hello to anyone who remembers me and Hi to those who dont. I have crawled out from under my rock to assist, annoy and amuse.

I just missed you the first time around as I've had my Griff nearly 4 years.

Welcome back Sir and good on you. Happy Hunting and if you need a pair of eyeballs in the midlands feel free to give me a shout.

Hi BB, good to see an original member here still. I think I'd prefer another 500. If I can get a nice condition low mileage early example then I will be happy. Dosh is waiting(13-15k) so its just a matter of finding one. Dont mind doing a few jobs on it as I'm a practical kind of owner.
E mailed a few folks, just waiting for replies. One sold already unfortunatley.

You never know, I may get there. Think it may take me a while to find a car tbh. Not so many to choose from these days that meet my well fussy standards.
