R500 CYA Posted February 25, 2005 Share Posted February 25, 2005 Due to an on going argument with my wife my last toy is up for sale. (Already sold the SLR so she can have babies, the Clio 172 so she can have a Volvo, the GS Adventure paid for part of the conservatory and now my last toy is to allow her to start a new business) I will not have it said I am under the thumb! It's a 91 (92 spec) with 95,000miles, full history and three owners since imported in 2000 LSD ABS all electrics work induction kit (nice noise) hayward and scott ss exhaust from headers back (98 dBa at 4750 rpm) accel racing chip rough guesstimate should be about 280 bhp (but I am sure someone will tell me otherwise) loads of cash spent on it incl all fluids changed, new oil cooler, stereo, air con serviced and charged, belts, gaskets, guaranteed NO LEAKS, clutch is good as is the gearbox. currently on a SORN living in my garage under a tailored cover attached to an optimate. Think I might move in with it actually. Dont want to sell it, hence lack lustre ad on an unrelated car site, but of you're interested its £12k no offers. Email if you want pics and if she's standing over my shoulder I might send you some. Alternatively does anyone know a good divorce lawyer.

Sheds Moderator Posted February 25, 2005 Share Posted February 25, 2005 *Gulp* Starts hyperventilating... - - Can I have some pics please? edited to reduce the already ridiculous amount of spam coming to this address. Latest was "oledr women wants to f***" (sic) and bizarrely there was no attached nasty or web link. Still, it's in the bin now.

Sheds Moderator Posted February 25, 2005 Share Posted February 25, 2005 [voice of reason] Look, spend the money on sorting out the 7, keep that for another year or 2, buy a sensible tintop instead and stop rattling round in that horrible old Volvo... [/voice of reason] Buy it....it's beautiful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R500 CYA Posted February 25, 2005 Author Share Posted February 25, 2005 Bugger she's back! And she's making bacon sandwiches, you just know its a bribe! Pics are here for all to see: http://community.webshots.com/user/nickoak100 Give it a few mins cos I think it takes a while for webshots to sort their act out.

Peter Lydford Posted February 25, 2005 Share Posted February 25, 2005 What has having babies got to do with selling cars ? Since the birth of my 2 sons I have probably had more cars and bike than them ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R500 CYA Posted February 25, 2005 Author Share Posted February 25, 2005 Very good point Please call my wife and ask, she is on 555-NO TOYS Nick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Lydford Posted February 25, 2005 Share Posted February 25, 2005 You can let her know that since my boys were created by my perfect self I've got through at least 3 911's, 4 Caterhams, 10 classic Lotus Elan's, 3 Lotus Europa's, about 10 various bikes including 916's, 748's, 851's, T509, T595, T955, R1100S, R850R. etc: etc:, current toys are a Ferrari 308GT4 and a Caterham, my sons are 6 and 9 years, my wife does not worry at all about my toy habbit, as long as I provide for the family anything goes. Your only here once, there's no rehersal, and I want to have a play with as many cars and bikes as I can ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Estate Agent Posted February 25, 2005 Share Posted February 25, 2005 Looks a good buy but i couldnt cope with LHD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R500 CYA Posted February 25, 2005 Author Share Posted February 25, 2005 Ever driven an early RHD 911? (930/964/993) UGH! The pedals are even more offset than a nasty old 308 GTS LHD is much better with regard to driving position, its better on the track (tracks are predominantly clockwise in the UK so you have a better view of right hand bends) and most importantly of all it 5k cheaper than its RHD equivalent! I can understand your concerns, but really they are misfounded, however there are two people coming to see it at the weekend so if you could spread the word about how horrible it is to drive a LHD please do so, it can only help me keep it!

Peter Lydford Posted February 26, 2005 Share Posted February 26, 2005 I agree, LHD 911's are nicer to drive that RHD, my 911's were all LHD and I had no problems with them at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R500 CYA Posted February 27, 2005 Author Share Posted February 27, 2005 Cheers Anthony, you know I'd far sooner move into it than sell it! For everybody else who has asked for pics and details, thanks for your interest, I'm emailing as fast as I can (just back from the pub after yet another depressing England game and the bottle of Rioja and three pints of Stella seem to be impeading progress somewhat) Nick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
