That would be wonderful! Cheers for the offer, it is looking a wee bit 'agricultural' with all my off cuts at the moment! I'll obviously have to give you some beer tokens, let me know how much and I will be happy to oblige.

Excellent, look forward to meeting you. I will be in my old 540i so will have plenty of room and I won't be too bothered about getting the inside dirty with logs!

It was a nice night (shame about the crappy weather mind)!

S2, did you go down in the end? I have no idea what you look like!

The Morgans were absolutley beautiful, I've not seen one in the flesh before. I would love a Bowler Wildcat, it would make the commute to work in the morning far more interesting!

Me and a friend popped down for an hour as we used to be members of Forresters car club, looked at a few cars and caught up with a few friends and then went to the pub smile
Quite liked that GT3 RS that turned up outside cloud9

I saw that, it was a really nice bit of kit, but I have to admit falling totally in love with the Aeromax in the showroom!

Aeromax was a bit too much for me, prefer the look of the standard Aero 8. Bowler Wildcat, now that would be fun to go greenlaning in hehe
The TVR rallycar certainly looked functional, but i dont think the bodywork was exactly waterproof laugh
After speaking to a few people it has relighted our motivation to get back into rallying one day, but i think the best we can stretch to on our budget is the Corsa hehe

Did you hear the Morgan fire up? It sounded lovely, it also my my OH jump about three feet to the left!

The Bowler was a monster of a machine, did you get a look under the bonnet? It had a 4.0 RV8 and a healthy 260 bhp. I would love a go!

I'd like to get into motorsport, but I understand what you say about budget, it's a shame that everything can get a bit pricey.
