Not in the slightest pal. Not just because of the M5 but because still almost every day I am involved in fixing someones broken Cosworth or telling someone the car they just bought is a dog and he better get a bank loan... it puts you off ya know?

Deep down I still love them, and as a marque they have been good to me and my family, but aftre having one as a daily driver + development car for 10 years solid, my owning days are over.

yip was only on late j and k plates i believe


col i sold the white one,i liked it but wasent for me,was skint and needed to put more money into the 3-door but seen this getting broke and ive always loved the colour,almost bought one before my magenta saph

so struck a deal for the trimmed shell minus the usual running gear,and went upto peterhead for it

got to say its a good car,never welded,chassis legs solid,only complaints is rear arches have been done in past and you can see bubble under paint,and the usual arsehole jacked a 16y old car up on the sill and crushed jacking point a wee bit

but with a good few hours and a couple of quid it will be a nice car

ps i wish i was loaded
