Couldn't do it...

[Marlon]

Thought I could handle it.

Thought I could crack the habbit.

Thought I could sell the Griff.

Can't.



If I have to choose, I'll sell the Noble!

Well, I suppose that gives me a few less things to do on Friday night then! I was really looking forward to experiencing the difference over a standard one too!
Ah well....

You were looking forward to the differences?!?! I was looking forward to owning it!

Gutted you're not selling now Marlon, but I can see why. Just hope you don't change your mind a week after I find and buy another Griff, but I'm pretty sure you won't!

Though, if the Noble's going for the same asking price......

And Darren, at least you don't have to do the M25 traverse on Friday evening now!

_DJ_, you after a griff to fill the gap? SOunds like a good choice to me. What sort of price range? Very nice looking black one in the classifieds at the moment.

Nah, just looking for Simon. I'm going to be TVR-less for at least 12 months I'm afraid. I went to look at a Griff the other day for him and must admit that the power delivery of the v8 made me smile!
I started thinking of 500LE's for a few seconds but I'd prefer to try as many models as possible, regardless of how much I like Griffs

edited to add: Black one looks really nice Simon...

Good decision Marlon. I detect a hint of regret in everybody's voice who's had a Griff and moved on. I fancy something more modern myself but have come to the conclusion the Griff has to be a keeper.

Aye, you can't beat that V8. I'm sticking with mine!

Us too. The saying "out of my cold dead hands" springs to mind.

Jaguar had an "F" type prototype out about 4-5 years ago. Looked absolutely stunning. Then it all went quiet. Is this it re-surfacing?

Is it just me or does the XK8 look about 6-8 inches too short in front of the "A" pillar? The DB7 and DB9 are just right, but the Jag looks squashed.
