Fame maybe (my 15 minutes starts here), but alas I doubt any fortune to accompany it.
You never know though it may be to anothers forune as it may add £5 to the average price of a G26 along the way.
With hindsight perhaps I should have been a little less 'self deprecating' about the old SOTW but then again it's an indication of effort I wish to employ to actually sell. Maybe selling the G32 would be a better move as I have far less attachment to it.

Should drop Luigino a mail see if he wants a tow car for the G17

Just had a mail from a mate of mine who I sent a link to, he opened it and had beer through nostrils moment reading the write up.
I think the reason I do not really wish to sell it is that I know that if I sold the G32 or the G15 or the G27(which will never happen) I can be assured that they will not end up as a donor for something, crunched up and broken. The G31 however is worth far more for dubious use of its Ginetta Coupe registration document and its mechanical parts than as a whole but it deserves far better as it's a far more capable machine than its donor underpinings. Hopefully the slight celeb status of being a PH SOTW will save it from an ignominious end of being used a donor to put G4/G27/a n other kit on the road in Europe as many a G26 family product has been in the past.

What I thought was really good about this (your!) SOTW was this must be the first shed that everyone liked!
Hardly a dissenting voice in the threads.

Still amazing though, on a car forum, those who still know virtually nothing about the marque.
