Anyone know this car?
Discussion
I'm going to look at a Dark Metallic Blue Griff 500HC on Saturday, currently advertised on PH and located in N London. I have been in touch with the owner about seeing photos of the car before I have the prospect of a 280 mile round trip but he does not have any available.
Please PM me if you have any comments, I would prefer it if they were not posted in an open forum for the owners sake.
TA! much appreciated.

Really, really, f

You have to work at things sometimes !!

Guys,
Many thanks for the replies and the PMs, most helpful.
It is unfortunate that there are no photos, it is off putting and now leaves me thinking whether to skip this one and concentrate on some of the others.
Maybe time to talk to that nice Mr Agger!

If you do the ring him........ never answers any mails it seems,i did thik about getting a car off aggers at one point
Hi Martin, how's the new car, hope you are well pleased!!!He has been answering mail very quickly and been very accomodating in other ways but it is still this issue of the lack of photos.
Being an idiot I will most likely make the journey as agreed as much as anything out of curiosity!!
The excuses you make when looking for a new car!! The wife still doesn't realise that I'm moving up to 5 litres from 2.9 and sh thought that was bad enough

YB........ having a laugh with the griff,seriously should have got somethinglike this a long time ago
Martin, you can go off people quickly, lol. I too was having a laugh with the Griff. Until last Saturday late evening coming out of Thixendale. Seems the clutch fork has worn through the pivot ball and jammed. Looks like motor or tranny out. No prob with either. It's finding the time to do it. Wish there was a quick fix?????????Glad you're enjoying yours. If you're anything like me, you'll get past the first month and many miles until your confidence with the Griff is through the roof and you'll be treating it like a four wheeled superbike. Totally awesome. I've always loved my bikes a little raw. Buell, 916, and the Griff sits in perfectly!
All, I've decided not to go tomorrow partly due to feeling sh_te with man flu and a family do in N Yorks tomorrow from 3pm but, expressed my concern especially lack of photos. Have said if photos are made available then I would re-arrange for next week otherwise I'll be looking elsewhere, the benefit is that you guys have provided substantial help in my decision.
Rigga, I am really pleased for you and soooooo bloody jealous, I should have driven down to see Andy on the Saturday Night! b_gger, b_gger, b_gger;D

I took the griff into work on friday as it was a lovely sunny day,some guys know im into cars because they know the ammout of work thats gone into the impreza and the power its now running,one lad had a later version impreza and modded it to my spec and he was very pleased,sold it recently and informed me he was getting a two seater sports car as a summer toy,snap says i.... he has a bmw z3m convertable,very nice example really,i show up in the griff and they are all stunned by the car,six guys in a row watch as i fire her up,and all at once their jaws hit the floof...... funny as hell
sean.... yes griff fits in well with the bikes i agree,very raw...
YB.... fingers crossed,so far it was a very good move on my part,im sure there is the one for you out there ready and waiting

Never? well I do try but not always can I be 24/7 on the net and I do as you can imagine get a very large number of emails every day, although some seem to be for some enlargement products and pills ;-) Anyway always happy to help where I can when I can and sell a few nice TVR's on the way

Ok...... ill clarify a little,i never personally got a reply from the emails i sent,i accept your a very busy person,and its not always possible to answer everything,no matter as i sourced a car in the end.
Martin,I've had a mail from him, usual cheek! told him I want an immaculate 2001 SE, in Red Bull blue, from the final batch with no more than 10k on the clock, so it's nicely run in and he can go up to oooh!! £4k tops.
I suspect his reply might be along the lines of "dementia setting in?" but I know he'll come up trumps.;D
