i see its sold on the dealers site (outwood); i now miss it more than when i missed it when sold it back to the dealer. But now doing morgaa aero 8 series 1 (mmmmm); as porsche GT2 made the BiB slightly too interested in me for my liking...

Whoever has bought the GTS, are getting a cracking car and has been tended by the loving hands of chuck and nad; then had all its recalls done and serviced at the right place (thanks lee), and had a tasty exhaust put in by brill guys up at brackley, and some great hiflo cats (bought from carl i seem to remember; my memory is slipping) - and baz installed for me; fantastic. Great car..i want it back..it would look well sitting with the aero.

I knew i had seen that car somewhere. Maybe RT/10Dave has some info on who brought it as he did indicate something about a new B/W owner the other day and there has only been two up for sale recently and they both seem to have gone now.

Its me. Should be collecting next week some time, really looking forward to it. I'm not a race driver and really careful with my stuff so you can be sure its going to a really good home!

you know you are only looking after it for me; i shall be round to repossess it in a years time (only joking..or am i?).

am interested in Julian's sales patter..to make you part with your hard earned folding stuff..or did the b/w gts sell itself to you.

Buying the car is just the start Mark... I already warned you, you'll start seeing all sorts of things you want now! Looking forward to seeing the car! Are you tagging along to the Luton Lunch?

I know and I took it all on board Dave. Any Viper related purchases would have to be made from sacrifices elsewhere so will try to concentrate on not making any for a while... As for the lunch I'm not sure yet, so didn't want to start saying I would until I knew what was happening that weekend.

You were lucky i guess as they reduced the advertised price only a few weeks ago by something like £3k, or was that what caused the final decision?

I had my eye on the prices for about 10 months non stop so have a pretty good idea what was going on. The price drop did tempt me in and I figured I'd get it for next to nothing by being the big man but turned into a gibbering idiot when sat in it. Let that be a lesson to all other aspiring owners - do the negotiation before seeing the car!!!

All I can say now (even before I have it) is that all my friends are jealous and I will be charging them for rides just to fund the fuel!

Good job you didn't go to look at it a couple of weeks earlier then.

Don't listen to them... you have the best colour and the car is perfect as it came out the factory. All this talk of smooth tubes and big brakes, just grin and enjoy it how it was meant to be biggrin
