Is anyone bringing a partly filled container ex UK in the next week or so. I have a very light race car (Essex/London)that I want to bring to NZ - prepared to share costs etc

Hi slightlymad, would you be Graham's friend perchance?

Sadly, you've missed my container, which left about 3 weeks ago. It's possible that PHer "Kylie" might be bringing a container over shortly, although I'm not sure how shortly "shortly" will be.

Sounds like an interesting piece of kit you've got coming over, any likelihood of a sneak-peek?

Yeah. I would like to bring it in sooner rather than later. You are welcome to have a peek when it arrives.

Graham has mentioned it's something special, so we'll wait with baited breath! smile

Whatever it is, I have a feeling it's going to make my new Exige seem pedestrian! wink

I think my Caterham would have done that but we are talking a race car compared to a track day. I raced against an exige in SA with supercharged Honda engine (broke drive shafts or something a few times) It was awesomely quick though.

As long as it keeps the adrenaline pumping through the veins and the smile on the face, that's all that counts wink

It's described as a "very light race car"

Of those four words the Saab 96 only qualifies for one . . . "very" rofl

Various ones that Barry sent when he got the beastie. They're at work but I'll send them to you when I'm in the office. Possibly tomorrow, otherwise Monday. smile
