as you can tell from my previous posts I can't decide between the Griff and Chim. Today a pistonheads member showed me around his Griff and took me for a "spin". Now I've changed into clean pants I'd like to have a look close up at a Chimaera and I was wondering whether there were any Chim owners in Essex who'd let me pop round one weekend and jusk look at the car close up without the hassle of a salesman. I just want to be able to compare the two before I go and buy one. Ant takers ?

SRAPUBLIC,

I'm from Southend but own a Tuscan...but I have a suggestion. If you can make the Mid-Essex meet this Sunday (Witham way) would expect over 60 cars (going on previous months) then you will have lots of Chims to view and maybe someone might take you out in one. We meet this Sunday at the Forresters Golf Club near Witham.

If your interested I can send you details of where to meet etc.

Alan.

Exactly what I'd suggest!

Someone might even have a spare seat on the way there and back!

If you get a lift to the convoy gathering at the White Hart I can offer the passenger seat for the journey to Great Totham.

Alf, could you email the details (couldn't email you as at work). What exactly takes place at "meets" anyway ?

Bloody 'ell - I've been your mate for over a year now and you have NEVER offered me a ride in your Chimera.

Pah - more likely the real reason is that Mrs TdF would then want a ride in Mr Big's Griffith and you are worried that she would then realise she is missing out big time
