Picked up my second spider friday, this car was intended to be for me till july but its hopefully gonna stay long term with me or at worst my dad will have it! Its very nice, needs about £1k of prep and I have booked a visit from swissoil and a new capristo from verdi to get it to a similar standard to my beloved Argento 360 spider thats tucked up in its bubble.
Managed to pick up a two week old hitch hiker! The heir to my cars!

lovely cars, enjoy

is that a Porsche 997 GT3 RS in orange on your drive, or is it just a plain old skip ? LOL

Truely lost it, I have the 'Fletch' gene of collecting! The TDF was gonna be everyday car for a few months upto the summer tours to le mans via monte carlo back for a service and clean ready to be sold in high summer, but given the history, condition and general greatness of the car it will stay in my bloodline, I will give dad first option but if he doesnt fancy it I,ll keep it, as you can see from the picture Alexander will be out to work soon so he can chip in with the bills!!! The guys from Swissoil did an amazing job on my silver 360 so they can be unleashed on this one too, it desperately needs a new exhaust. I was really pleased with the F1 box, in central london friday night it was a pig, but out in the hills from bakewell towards the cat and fiddle it was a dream.

The Cat & Fiddle Rd, Ahhhh, lots of memories of that part of the World - what a great great area for driving! (I feel like getting in the Lambo and going there right now, now that you've brought it up....alas, 1 bottle of red vino and being 150 miles away sort of ruins that plan tonight!)

Where are you based (Cheshire?)

Busy tuesday and friday this week, but other than that it would be an honour to take you to collect the vision in Red!
