Just think, the next time you give the all singing, all dancing AB07 a workout then you will be sitting in a 3dr shell, living the Cosworth dream... oh no, wait, you won't be.

how you doing steve? drove my old saff a couple of day's ago felt right at home in it! if i had a choice of that or my old 500 back it would be the saff. might not of been the best car of the two but i put a lot of work into it and had a lot of fun! think if you keep a car long enough it becomes like one of the family and hard to let go. never did buy it back found out my brother didn't really want to sell but still kept deposit on it just case
