It's a funny old world

[burriana]

Well, it's been a big old circle, starting 4 years ago with me getting my dream car ... from Hertfordshire ... a few weeks before Gabby was born ... a red Griffith 500.

Since then I have had a sublime Ferrari 348 Spider, a great 911 Carrera, and now ... nearly 4 years to the day, the circle has completed itself.

This morning ... from Hertfordshire ... a few weeks before our second child is born .... I put a deposit on a Griff 500 ... but this time in yellow!





Hope to pick it up in the next 10 days or so as soon as the paperwork has completed on the plate transfer on the 911.

Just coz you had a bit of touch up left over from the Ferrari Al

Looks yummy.

[Mr Whippy]

Fine choice of colour for a Griff 500!

Glad you managed to find the right one...

Enjoy

Now THAT is a fine looking Griff. Well done, Al and I hope you have a great deal of fun in it.
I'll look forward to a few 'Red Line' runs with you at the roadside

[J_S_G]

Congratulations, Al... fantastic purchase!

It's only because I'm jealous!

That is a spot on car in a great colour.

Good job!

Cheers guys!

Now, there might be a bit of a problem with that Michael ... the dials are quite cool, black with white details but, in true Peter Wheeler minimalist style, there doesn't seem to be a red line of any description. I guess I'll just have to wait for the limiter to kick in

Lovely car Al, one of my favourite TVR's that one.

[stepej]

Great looking car fella!..

It's good to have you back in the fold

[Bob the Planner]

Well done old chap. Look forward to seeing you out on one of the trips I will be making back to Yorkshire.

[Tonto]

(O/T) How was the M3 Bob?

[v15ben]

Looking very nice Al mate. Hope to see it at a Yorkshire pub meet sometime in the near future. How does it feel to be back to some true British grunt then?

[concerned cat]

Nice looking car Al. Hope you have a load of fun with it!

[burriana]

Next V.Max sounds as good a place as any to start

Mind you, then there's the P.Heads/E.Hoon p!ss up the weekend after next too!

[blueyonder]

Bring it on It would be good to see the Griff at the Pi55 up on the 27th

What did you think to the Griff at Christopher Neil's by the way?

[madbadger]

Looks great, Al.

I'll ruin the fun and say it's probably 6250rpm

Lucky bugger, wish I had a rev-limiter worth hitting
