I've had a RR for the last seven years. I bought it nearly new and I've always said it was the best car I've ever owned. Well a friend of mine has a small RR problem. Basically the problem is he keeps coming back from the pub pissed and buying another one on EBay. A few weeks ago his wife had finally had enough and he was told to redistribute a few. This is how I now find myself the owner of a rather scruffy RR Classic soft dash model. Dark green with black leather and wearing the scars of it's hundred and fifty thousand miles and going a little green around the edges. On the plus side it has been fitted at some point with a fab full stainless exhaust so it makes a fantastic sound, and when we did the nought to sixty bit it came up in about nine seconds. The suspension has been changed to springs at some point and it all drives really well. Now my kids insist on taking it everywhere and I've got to say I really like it. No i mean i really, really like it! However if I'm going to keep it, it was only a grand to buy, then it is going to need a bit of tlc. Does anyone know of someone who they would recommend in the Tonbridge area.

I've known Angus & Howard for a number of years, very genuine and a huge amount of knowledge.

I'd heard they were good but they are talking at least four to six weeks before they can even look at my car!

They are strange like that, I bought a 93 SE beacuse we got stranded at home this winter in the snow, but I totally love it, drive it everywhere, Boxster stays in the garage
