Kev, you would be welcome to buy the Red Baron (when all has been fettled to the extreme, half cage, uprated wishbones etc.) in a couple of weeks.

I may be redundant on Wednesday and also need a bit of cash for Del boy adventures. Plus I have been offered good value Ultima kit s/h, so may delve into Ultimahood

That said, I know you are used to those comfy electric seats of yours, so maybe the Red Baron would be a bit extreme after the 360

Kevin,

Chances are if you start a new venture you'll be too busy to drive your car around Instead, you can could be dreaming/speculating what your next one will be. Think how excited you'll be when you get it!

Good luck with the venture and hope to see you soon - VW 14/12?

Cheers, Roms.

Wow! Shocking news Kev!
Good luck with the new business venture.
Surely you must have some loose change available for a TVR now?
Cheers.... Andrew

Kev:
Just thought I'd see how things were going without the 360 parked in the garage? Have you come to terms with it yet, or is the pain still unbareable

I was flicking through some old vids last night and came across an old 5th Gear special, the one were Tiff thrashes a 360 AND an F40 around some circuit or other - MAGIC

I can only imagine how gutted you must have been selling her!!! Anyway, have you decided what exotica to replace the 360 with yet? (Porsche perhaps???)

Hi Jay- surprising how quickly you adapt to it really. Had a bit of a twinge when I found the 360 Tubi clip on the Scuderiasystems website but otherwise it's so busy I've not thought about it much.

It's not so bad because I'm keeping the 456 for the moment; my family went ape when I had someone over to have a look at it. The FOC website was not a safe place at all and what I've found out is that I can sell this car pretty easily if/when the time comes.

And there is some pork on the menu, although it'll be more of the 'all day breakfast' variety than 'medallions et beurre blanc'.

Kevin.

It doesn't surprise me one bit you could sell your 456 easily. The red paintwork makes the car so desirable to collectors & enthusiasts.

Glad to see your family are "keeping you in line".

If you want your eggs scrambled, make sure the porker has an RS suspension kit on it!

Is 'eggs' a new slang word? My missus will be driving it too, so it can't be that hardcore, or LHD unfortunately. We'll have to see what they're like to drive as stock first.

PS Dom- you OK?
