It was nice to drive, and the driving position is superb, anyone who's sat in one will know how narrow and tight the drivers side area is, but a very nice car!

We were going to buy one of them at one point, the Corvette owners club creator had one just like that up for £10k, it was absolutely PERFECT though so you should be able to pick them up for £3k if you don't mind a bit of work.

Out of interest when did you change you name from TD Raper ??
Tom
02-02-07, 13:33
A little while back, because I got annoyed when people kept typing TD Raper instead of TDraper :D

Out of ionterest, have you enhanced the pics? Looks tasterly shiney :)
Tom

I had just polished it with an orbital buffer which is why it's so shiney but I also used a filter on the lens on the outdoor shots which does make a difference :)
