I would easily do it, but I'm not sure my car will be back and you are about 200 miles away, sorry.

Thanks for your reply
You'd have been most welcome, sorry you can't make it

Don't think mine will be finished being repaired by then but keep posting any further events.

Thanks, send him the details above for me please (can't get links to work off PH at the moment) as if he can't help this time he may want to help another time

As you're much travelled yourself have a look at the links above yourself as the Sporting Bears Dream Rides are also at different locations and dates

Would love to have been part of this, (If a Caterham could have been described as interesting enough) , but it s abit too far for me to travel from Aberdeen.

Dave thanks for your comment, a Caterham would go well at our other events but they're even further away from you

[Dave L]

Yeh, not exactly an exotic, or a dream ride, but certainly different!!!

Good luck with the event

Thank you

A Caterham may not be an "exotic" (organisers' description not ours) but still a dream ride for some people

As I pointed out to Itsadeal, because you've got one you've probably forgotten what it was like to aspire to one

Now don't get upset, , I was very sucessfull with my Westie the times I took it to the NEC

Have sent a link to friend in Borders with a Ginetta G4 ... He may be able to help - don't know if it counts as 'exotic' but it's pretty unusual!!

Thank you very much for that

If I was there I'd love a ride in it

But I'm not

Mummy Polar Bear is the Sporting Bears Dream Rides organizer

Nigel,

Unfortune would have it that many of us will be oop north that weekend for a sprint weekend.

My plan is that I will indeed be the owner of something exotic by then. If circumstances change and I can help, I will.

Have you thought about contacting the likes of Northo direct?

Cheers,

Eric

[Sporting Bear]

Eric, thanks for your thoughts, we don't know Northo, but we soon will

I'll ask Mummy Polar Bear to contact him as she's the organiser for this activity

Thank you for your help

If we are not racing that weekend would my Ferrari 208GTB Turbo be of any use (its red)
