Im back !!!
« on: June 09, 2013, 10:43:00 PM »
Hi all , some might already know me from brooklands last year , i came down in a white bis G43 NYC. It had blacked in back windows and a red tailgate.
Well luigi had to go as i was not in a position to get him resprayed and sorted as i wanted , i can't weld, paint etc. He went to a good home and the guy who brought him from london was well chuffed.
Anyhow i had been looking out for another since then , but it had to be mint. As i have no time to mess about with them ( two kids , own business etc)
And i brought one on ebay today , picked it up tonight , white bis 1991 24,000 miles , every mot from new , service  history, origonal bill of sale, totally mint , full pull back webasto sunroof , just needs blow in exhaust fixing , well chuffed !!!!
I think i have missed brooklands auto italia day this year , will try to get to a local show if poss

 Cheers , i was a bit worried about buying it , as its a lot to pay for a toy , it is not going to be a daily driver , but i just HAD to buy it . You know when you stand there and think " if i dont buy this , i will never get the chance to own one this nice " so in for a penny in for a pound .

Fairly sure i would get my money back if i hit hard times

Yes I did like wise looked at a 126AC that a mate had sitting in the garage for 25 years. I paid a fair price as he had just spent £350 sorting brakes and mot out. Once in a lifetime chance as the cars nearly mint with under 9k on the clock
