I thought that at first too, but I'd never admit it

I think this was the car at the NEC - Classic Car show earlier in the year. It is absolutely gorgeous.
Unfortunately the wife wouldn't let me sell the house.

I stored my Mini Cooper in Win's barn over last winter and have seen his Griffith in the flesh, and it's absolutely amazing, you could spend hours just drooling over the shiny engine bay. The story he told me was that it was restored at great expense by a gentleman who then found he was too large to drive it comfortably, so sold it on.

I'd love to be able to afford to own this car. SImply stunning and with performance that most modern day cars can only dream about.


I'd love even more to be able to buy it for my dad who had Vixens and Grantura's. Bit much for my pocket for this years 60th !

It's a 400 (as it says on 1st post), the 200's looked like Granturas from the back didn't they?
I'm pretty sure it was this car at the NEC in November and then I though it was £25k - which is a bit more realistic.
