I know this sounds rather cryptic but I would like to ask if anyone has an hour free tomorrow for a chat (either over the phone or in person) in London. Happy to chat over lunch if anyone has time and of course lunch is on me.

So what is it about? Well I don't want to go into details here on a public forum but I have an AM related decision to make and would welcome a second opinion. I think I know what I want to do but I may have missed something in my thought process.

Thanks in advance.

Think we all have an idea what this is about from a previous thread. Would a call to Bamford Rose not be the best advice. I have had some emails back and forth with Mike this morning. They are so bloody honest. He basically gave me some advice that stopped him from earning some money in the short term thumbup

Thanks Nick. I may do just that. The chat I wanted to have now is more a consumer chat than a technical one,
a kind of this is what I think - am I mad or is it sound thinking? (although I will send Mike an email and see what he thinks technically).

That's great. Nick (woolders) also offered to chat so if you can make it too Nick at the City Boot I will get two points of view. I insist on buying though.

See you at 12:30 Neil and thanks.

I couldn't handle all that extra power smile

To be serious, this is more about whether I keep the eight that I have!

You are of course welcome Lewis.

Just to avoid confusion, this is about information that has come to light about my car and a decision I have to make about future ownership. It isn't about trading for another one. Just wanted to clarify so I don't waste anyone's time.

On a serious note I if I am guessing correctly I had similar issues with a car I owned 10 years ago. However I lived with them for 7 years of ownership as I loved the car sooo much. The car is back on the market and I am seriously thinking of selling the kids to get it back.

Do it Nick, you can always make more kids biggrin

Truly stunning, what's it like to actually drive one? Is it a case of never meet your heroes?

yes
Had the poster on the wall as a teenager.
Had a chance to sit in one last year - well I say sit in it, but basically couldn't, as I am too tall frown
You have to be a serious short arse to even get in one comfortably, let alone drive it - my legs were wrapped around the steering whell, and head was out of the car.
