JasonL Posted June 27, 2005 Share Posted June 27, 2005 I can testify that this is a cracking car, well fettled and cared for in excellent condition and from the many passenger rides I have had in this car goes like stink. Good luck with the sale Paul - we'll all be sorry to see the NB go. Cheers Jase Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt Shears Posted June 30, 2005 Share Posted June 30, 2005 Paul, Nice car. I am also looking at selling my 1800 vvc so I can go racing next year. What series are you thinking of joining? Matt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Archie Procter Posted June 30, 2005 Share Posted June 30, 2005 Paul and Matt There are some good grads cars for sale at the moment, particularly this one - and it's very reasonably priced for its spec and race pedigree If you want to know any more about Grads or even the process for how I selected grads racing over other series by all means drop me a line - I was in the same position this time last year. Or better still drop Mike a line, he sold grads racing to me 😬. Andrew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northern Banana Posted July 2, 2005 Author Share Posted July 2, 2005 Matt & Andrew, Will probably be one of the Grads formula's market a bit slow at the mo so all depending on the sale...once those CSR's get lapped on a trackday I'm sure the SL, SLR and R whatever prices will stabilise 😬 Northern Banana.co.uk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
