Popped into Graypaul Ferrari on Saturday morning for a quick snoop around. The missus decided to leave her phone there so upon my return visit I parked next to this little beauty, anyone on here?

That would have been me. been to Aston across the road for coffee and cake on my way home from picking the car up from the photo posted earlier.
The young lads were still there when I left, rude not oblige their requests for a few revs.

Ah excellent! I had a feeling I'd seen the car on PH. I admit I tried to make a slight racket coming in, hoping the owner might come out of Ferrari and say hello!

Absolutely! Shame the roads were a bit greasy but I think a big enough spectacle was made,

And today Santa came early.... and fitted 2 new rear tyres.... Michelin Pilot Sport 4S on a V8 Vantage. Thank you Santa.

Sorry, didn't hear you arrive, I did hear you leave though.

After all the discussion regarding the "New Vantage", I had to pull the cover off and remember why I still love the "Old Vantage", put the top down and take her for a ride!

OMG! Garage envy.

Well that makes my cheap check tiles look a bit sad!

Correct! Such an improvement for just a few hundred quid, 5 extra horses and no negative impact on emissions. Also you retain the backbox's flaps for closure when required (may have to use WD40 to free up my switch mind as will probably be seized solid in OPEN) Enjoy.

Crikey, good job. I find it hard to get the enthusiasm to clean and polish cars in this cold damp weather. Fair play to you.

Thans. I'm the same normally but it was surprisingly warm yesterday
