Hi all,

Had a few Chimaeras fall through of no fault of my own. Looking for a 400HC or 450. Getting close to giving up hope.

Flipping enigma, yeah I regret not buying the one Gilly had, a chap just bought it, and its a gem, wants a good tickle and clean up but it looks to have gone to a good home.

Wyn, where is that road, where from and to, what is it marked as on the map.
As a nipper ( about 5 or 6 yrs) my dad would have sit on his lap and drive the car for miles on roads exactly like that!
The road from Phillips town, over the mountain to Tredegor for example, and by heck he would make ME drive it.
You can see where I get my passion from right there in that video. Mega.

Hi
There have been a number of vehicles offered to Rob on this thread.
Now he's found his, if the sellers are interested in a 350i Wedge as part swop/deal etc I might be interested.
Needs to be north /north east England or possibly Scotland really otherwise I'd have been to see the very pretty light blue 400 on Autotrader but that was in Cheltenham.
Would want "normal" headlights rather than Tuscan style, and not dark green or black. Me picky?
The red wedge was the one on the Cobweb run recently.
Cheers
Tony H
