And as difficult to prove as a gentleman's agreement to buy.![]()

Yes, I remember the thread, I'm afraid that is where our personalities differ as I would not have let that lie. We all deal with things in different ways though.

Glad you found one - I do like stories with a happy ending!
Looking forward to some pictures now.

Well it sounds like you aren't so happy about the outcome! But you didn't have to sell it did you?:lol:
Hopefully you'll be replacing it with something similarly exciting.

Enjoy your new car. I loved it when I owned it.Fresno82 said:It's been chucking it down all week and I've not had a chance to take it for a really long drive yet, but am loving her so far![]()

Hi Iain
Yes, replaced with “something similarly exciting”, as you put it.
The 35iS went on Saturday afternoon.
I picked this little gem (brand new Exige Sport 350) up, the afternoon before the 35iS was collected..
Like the new one Paul. Are you going to take it on the track?
