Title: Moving on
Post by: mikek on August 24, 2023, 12:42
Hi Everyone

I haven't been on here for a while, life got in the way. I am sad to say I have just sold "the little car" to a really nice guy call Callum. I'm sure he will be along here to introduce himself.

I just want to say thank you for all the help, friendships and fun I have had over the last 7 years. It's the longest I've owned a car ever!

Hope to see you all soon even if I have to park "by the bins" from now on!

Thanks again

Mike

I may have bought a project!

Tvr s2 with v6 cosworth conversion. All new underneath but been off the road for 13 years. Always wanted a cosworth one and this was too good to turn down. She's called "tatty" coz she is! Lots of work needed but the major stuff is done.

I did see the car was up for sale, glad you sold swiftly.
The car was a cracking example!
Hopefully we will see some pictures of the tvr shortly

So its tatty buy then? (See what I did there?).

Life moves on. I hope we will meet up in the future, somewhere, driving something!

Good luck with the move too.

Simon.

oh cool!
Have you seen any of the "Pride and Joy" meets? particularly the one in Hamptworth is quite near you (I know Saturdays can be difficult).

Bernie brought his Renault to one the other week.
Open to anything.

Please do shout if you want to catch up, would be great to see you both.
