...I've decided to sell it in the spring. Don't really know why, it's been pretty reliable, sounds awesome, goes quick, but doesn't put the same smile on my face like it used to. I think I've just "got used to it" and I simply fancy a change. However, I don't know what to go for next but I'm toying with:

Gallardo
Dax AC Cobra
Atom
Ultima
Maybe an American muscle car
Something else!

Anyway, the Griff's got 30,000 miles (I've had it since 14,000 and it's been a good servant to me), FSH and sports exhaust. Dunno what it's worth to be honest, but I'll look into it and stick it on the classifieds sometime in the new year.

I keep doing little modifications to mine to keep my interest. To be honest i would not be interested in a standard one at all now. The car also holds your interest more if you do your own maintenance IMO.

Thinking the same thing myself TBH. Probably in the Spring/later on next year. I quite fancy an Exige or Europa.
