Anyone got room for a passenger?

[Muncher]

I'd love to go to Vmax again this time, but need to go as a passenger with someone who is driving. I've been to the last two and that were absolutely superb

I can get there myself ok, just need someone with a spare seat

[slinky]

Muncher sir.. you are indeed a git.. (in the nicest possible sense!!) for beating me to making this post..

Guess Vmax is out of reach for me this time around...

I thought there were no spectators at the last one so I missed out big time.

If anyone is willing to let me passenger and thus view this magnificent automotive pornography once more, I would be most grateful!! (feel free to email me through my profile) Willing to drive up to the gates or wherever nearby that I can leave my car.

Cant there be some sort of spectator bus?? BruntersTaxi?? Anyone got an M5?

Thanks in advance,
Ben CA

I am willing to give a few passenger rides, but my car will hardly be the main attraction! see here
www.g33.co.uk for an explanation...

Are you driving to the event alone, i.e. have a spare seat?

yes I think so, probably will be travelling from nottingham if you are angling for what seems obvious, the answer is yes - providing you don't live too far away!

Excellent, I can make my own way there, no problems. As no spectators are allowed I can only "get in" as a passenger in a car driving.

Hopefully I'll be driving myself next time in a VX220.

I'll be travelling up from the south (Surrey) and will potentially ahve a spare seat or two in the 3200 - so if you can get to me (or I can pick up en route) then no problem. OF course there is a possiblity that I'll have something different by then with only two seats which would scupper things somewhat, but given my track record on changing cars I wouldn't bet on it

If I come in the SL I will have space for one, or if I come in the CSL I will have space for 3... I'm coming from Newbury. If craig lets bikes in, I will still be bringing a car and getting my mate to transport the bike.

Bring the SL

Not much use now, but i'll be coming to the next one with room for 3 and a thin 4th.

I'll do as muncher does and drive up to Brunters (in Birmingham so easier if I drive over)- If I can grab that spare passenger seat Mr Tony I will be most greatful.

[slinky]

There may well be a few cars parked outside!!

Could anyone extend that offer to me?

I'll bring sandwiches!!

Would anyone be willing to let me have a ride in too please?

I can always get someone to drop me over at Bruntingthorpe as i live quite locally.

Seeing as you were first BCA it's yours.
Can't really offer more seats at this point. Problem is is that the Maserati is up for sale and I don't know whats replacing it yet. (Though if I get my way it could well be this....)

Ahh it's good to know you're still completely bonkers too then Tony Every non pher I've suggested it too has offered me a straitjacket!!

[rviant]

Rich just seen this on ferrarichat thought it might interest you.


Rob,

I was speaking with a well respected specialist the other day, who went to Talacrest last week to inspect the Ex-Chris Rea motor they've got, and in his words, "It's an absolute dog, bid him £20k to take it off his hands, but needs at least £5-6k spending on it just to make it safe!!! - probably another £10k to make it respectable and £20k+ to have a good car, He turned me down, which I expected and came home happy" His advice is not to bother !

[tony_996hasgone]

Oh well, keep looking Rich... but on the way to work this morning, I took a snap (sorry for the poor quality... but that's Nokia for you) of one that I see quite regularly in the City... beautiful!!!
