I cant be arsed typing the usual stuff because Ill only get told Im wrong about my own car so Ill stick to simple...

1400 miles in 10 days down to Bordeau. Luggage for 2 (one of them a bird and we all know what that means), averaged around 26mpg. Absolutely no problems, shocked the hell out of my bro in law about what the car could do. Utterly stunned reactions from pretty much every Frenchie that saw her (fiancee and car ) and one valuation of £100k.

Loved every second and I have a shedload of pics for you all later on, even though I dont do pics

Let me enlighten you...

DJC is the one who doesn't do pics and yet wants to post some of his car...

DJC always said that he never gets emotional about cars..cos they're only cars and yet has been known recently to say he "LOVES" his TVR....

DJC is changing before our eyes on this forum and it's kinda interesting to watch!

Oh..by the way, he drives a Sagaris.

Welcome to the forum.

Bah humbug!

Took the pics because I was asked to by David Yu for an article on Sagaris Im trying to write.
Still dont do sentiment about cars. I think the Sagaris is a cracking motor and I will be very sorry to see her go when she does, just as I was sorry to see the Griff go, but cars are only cars. No more, no less.

Er, that wasnt taken by the frizzy haired blonde bird who was also jumping up and down at the custard yellow Gallardo was it? That was the only other interesting motor we saw at the Chunnel. OK also a drop top C4S and drop top 360 but they dont count as interesting. Suppose there was a rather lovely looking Bentley (looked like an Arnage but didnt look too closely) in the car park also.

Aha....David Yu thinks Sagaris is interesting, maybe as...
