Ernie won First Place in the 2003 Winter Park Concours d'Elegance with his beautiful azure blue Esprit V8. Well deserved.

BTW: It was great to see you again. Tina says she had a wonderful time with Tammy.

Congrats.

...and Karl - took second

Cheers Ted - I just put a post in General Gassing. If you want any of the "good" pictures in hi - rez, let me know and will send them to you...

Going to sleep now, methinks...

ErnestM

PS: I am sure Tammy sends well wishes back, Karl. Her and the kids are out cold while I am fighting sleep like a proper insomniac

Edited to add:

For all the Esprit people that do not frequent General Gassing:

Well done Ernest.

Hope all this concourse stuff isn't stopping you from driving the beast as it should be driven though.

How do you think I get to the store for all the cleaning supplies?

Seriously, I bought it to drive it. All of the shows and things are the bonus. Just an excuse for us to get together

Ernie's V8 is possibly the shiniest car IN THE WORLD!!
-Lovely-



I still think the Enzo is the ugliest though...

Good job Ernest.

I have to say, those were some og the best pics of the Ferrari F60 I have seen, even better than actually seeing it at the auto show. I wish you had some pis of the engine bay and inside shotof the Xj220 Jag though.

I also have some video of the Enzo on the road, along with Karl-Franz chasing after him in his S4s

I will attempt to post that soon.

The next time we see Ian, I will get some pictures of the interior. Any preferences to colour? He has two

Your car always looks so shiny in the pics and am sure even the pics don't do them justice Ernest. I would love to see it in the flesh. Way to go!

Thanks very much, Kylie. It's a pity that you can't swing through Florida on your trip to the States. There is a nice little selection of Esprits in the local nieghborhood

ErnestM

PS: You have a highly refelctive one as well
