The owner is though and the car will NEVER see a track day - no matter what it says in the mag .

Absolute WASTE as an extremely expensive ornament - should be given to me to rag round in at Croft this year .

I sat in it at Dono ND imagining it on track . I had to wait five minutes before I could get out to hide the stiffy I was getting (and that was just from sniffing the seat ).

Paul's done an awesome job, it really is on another level.....you'd think he would smile about it! Mugshot make it look like Robbie Williams diet and depression treatment isn't going well :-(




Love the detail, Mikes right, Paul's is way too scared to track it now lol

It is an incredble car and a total credit to Paul,

One day it will be on track maybe not for some time though surely,

I must admit I would be scared to take it on a track, but would love to see it blasting around Thruxton, Its a real credit to Paul

Thanks very much for the kind comments fellas

I have had some very nice comments at the shows this year and it realy does make all the hard work worth it

Thanks again

Paul

Ps, Rainbird you were sat in it for longer than 5 mins ,, more like half an hour .
You need not worry about your stiffy as nobody would have noticed as its that small ( SO I HAVE BEEN TOLD ) lol

Lovely car, I agree its a real shame it wont be taken on track and absolutely given death but realistically unless you can drive like greg rose etc in the first place it wouldnt do it justice anyway probably.
