Many thanks for the positive comments regarding the car guys.
Why am I selling my pride & joy?
The car is too nice to put loads of miles on � it�s probably done more miles on the trailer than under its own characterful VHPD power.
What have I planned?
What can replace an S1 Exige � nothing � for � that gives you such a grin factor
Probably end up buying something Karen & I can long weekend away in and yet still have a bit of go about it. Have not given it too much though yet as the S1 needs to find a new owner first!
Never seen the full spec of yours Harvey, about as good as it gets IMO. Keeping the important bits standard and upgrades where it counts. Won’t hang around long I suspect.
That’s the car you pipped me to purchasing (from Stansted way). Looked really good then (as now).
How come your wheel arch liners are not ripped to shreds?
Good luck with the sale.
Oh: I have a BMW…don’t do it…bit let down and nothing but trouble autostart stop does not (start), aircon does not work (just like the Exige), washers don’t work (fill the door with water), dampers have given up, wipers hardly work (well the passenger’s side at the front does), engine is good though, gets 45mpg which I think is very good. 58 plate and 28k miles…It goes in October (thank goodness).
Sorry for pipping you to the car - yes it was Stuart’s car from Stansted way. When I saw the car in the flesh I had to have it so moved heaven & earth to secure it - even took a caning from Paul Matty on my S2!
The wheel arch liner on the offside front is slightly ventilated but all in all they have faired well.
What BM do you have?
