Newbie searching for a Griff

[gammav]

Hi All,
After many years of daydreaming, following the threads on this forum (lurking) and looking at the classifieds...I finally have funds and a decent garage.

I'm in the market for a Griff 500... Rob Ingleby is on the case, looking for a late ish 90's model preferably Green or Blue.

Anyone thinking of selling and wouldn't mind Rob carrying out an inspection please let me know.

Dave.

Apart from mine :P

Sadly yes it will be soon
Changes at work mean that she is just not driven anymore (only 500 miles in 2010) and will be sat in the garage until October at the earliest.
I'll get another one in the future for sure but know I'll never be able to find one like this.

I think I have done less than 500 miles between MOT's, I just cant imagine selling.
She has had her little foibles this year but just makes it that bit more special on days like this week when the sun is shining, the roof is left at home and the roads are twisty, fast and bloody good fun.

First BB selling up and now you Swanny?

Yours certainly is one of a kind in the Aston California Sage, it does look stunning. Sorry to hear you are selling up.

Are you not comming to the Growl this year?

Thanks to those who have contacted me with cars possibly for sale...

I am now the very proud owner of a 1998 Tahiti Blue Griff 500. which I bought on the recommendation of Rob Ingleby at the weekend.

Enjoyed the 300 mile drive home on Saturday immensely..even if it was rather warm with the roof on.

I'm looking forward to bringing it along to some of this years events (if time will allow) and drawing upon the experience of the members on this forum to maintain and improve the car
