OK, I am bored.

Two weeks ago I was winding my merry way to work when some arse in a 7.5 tonne delivery truck decided not to stop at a junction and ploughed straight into me.

Result, one broken back. (Not too bad really, snapped off a facet joint, it'll heal with time - sounds good though!)

Now, the car is a total loss.

The insurance are paying out on that next week and I need a new car.

In the summer I tested a couple of Tuscans but a new business venture got in the way.

Now I am back shopping and have a reasonable budget from the payout on the car and the ensuing compo - hey there most certainly is fking blame after all!

So I start trawling the classifieds for a Tuscan, and I get this idea that I should also look at the Griffith pages.

I keep coming back to one in-particular. The blue '95 500 at Racing Green. Now, ordinarily I'd pop down for a look, but it is a bloody long way from Luxembourg and travelling at the moment isn't the easiest thing to do.

So has anyone seen this car? Know it's history? I know RG have a reputation for premium charges for a premium product, I can live with that if that is what I get. But this one looks cheap, even for somewhere not RG.

You see, now I have gone and made myself all confused again.
