Newbie seeks new Toy

[Alex L]

I've recently sold my Honda S2000 and the cash is burning a whole in my pocket for a new weekend toy. My father owned a 1995 Yellow Griff 500 circa 11 years ago when I was 16 and I'd love to find his car if it's still intact. I've had a look through the classifieds and prices range dramatically but I don't think I should be spending more than about £12k seeing as my father sold his for £20k in 1998/99. Ideally looking for a Serpentine Griff with the T50 box and PAS with circa 40,000 miles, although condition is most important. If anyone knows the whereabouts of his Griff (photo below from Kerridges day at Snetterton), I'd be interested to know who owns it now. Otherwise if anyone is selling their car drop me a pm.

Thanks

Alex

Thanks, I'm sure my father would be pleased. He received the same comments at TVR days 10 years ago.

Guessing no one has seen his Griff then, was sold to a guy in Surrey with an Audi RS2.

From Z3M, to S2000, to Griffith. You do like a change Alex.

Not forgetting the Westfield and the VX220. Yes you're correct I've changed my weekend toy on an annual basis and managed to avoid all depreciation so far and am break even! Making the most of being able to afford a weekend toy and working my way through all the marques before I hit 30 in a few years time.
