Anyone know of a really good Griff, later SE preferably, but any very low mileage example in classy colour combo considered. Been too many years without one!! Thanks!

You're right Del, it's not biggrinwink

eta - But there are a few others here smile - http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/list.asp?s=3&...

I believe this used to belong to Mr Lockpick and was at The Growl last year if it is the same one, a very very clean car - http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/2326151.htm

+1 for that 95 Griff in the PH classifieds and if it is Mr Lockpick's Griff even better.

Probably of no interest to the OP as they appear to be looking for a late one but has Lord Grover still got his Pre-cat up for sale? That is another cracking example.

Mmm, I thought he might keep this for a while.

Hope his experience hasn't soiled his once evident fondness for the Griffs.

Was yours a standard rebuild Hoover or was it upgraded from the original spec. I seem to remember the dyno reading at the Growl being very good for a 4.3
