Gentlefolk,
Next week sees me viewing several cars, GS and Grantourismo, including Richard who has tantalised me with what may be the perfect match.
But I'd be silly to rule out some others: the GS's are pricing in the same bandwidth as similar age/mileage Grantourismos. Not sure whether I like the aggressive appearance of the GT, but my wife does.
I'm hugely indebted to Stevie for his generosity in time and effort: his black Gransport Spyder brought tears to the eyes, and his knowledge and impartial advice was invaluable. I had a fabulous and fruitful time. Thank you Stevie.
I was going to pop over to either Ace Café or the Bristol meet recently, but I had things going on which clashed.
Some contenders are listed here:
This chap doesn't understand that a clutch readout is necessary 'cos he says that it's an automatic and the car doesn't have one. Do I really want to buy from someone who doesn't understand the first thing about the car?

Lakeside have two that I may be interested in:-

and

Don't know what Lakeside are like, and I've asked for readouts
There's this from Dove House:-

Romans have a couple too:-

but it's website says it's sold.
Lastly from Boss:-

That's a fabulously charismatic picture: Rare 'Get out of my way'. Hmmm, I'm not really that sort of chap.
If anyone knows these cars or the dealers, I'd be grateful for views on either the car or dealer. Private-mail me if you'd prefer to speak plain.
Nuvolo or ADG don't seem to have anything at the moment.
I haven't gat a pic of Dickies yet, but I'll probably be more comfortable knowing that his will be well and truly sorted and shall certainly be visiting next week.
Looks like I'll be covering some miles next week.
Thanks chaps
Robin
