Yeah that was my experience too, our first long run up North (in 2 of them) was at the tail end of a storm. We we're amazed that the awful weather made no difference to the car and it found grip everywhere. Nice to get a different point of view, cheers 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't need much, a one bed hovel but it must have Westfield storage Dunno, we’re from Geordieland - so it’s not so far to travel 😁 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is also less than half my age, which helps 🤣 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robin Parker (Red Spider) - Yorkshire AO Posted October 8 Share Posted October 8 I can't show you what I've seen as I'm not allowed to take photos. I'm at a "Top Secret" testing facility near Bedford and there are some nice cars here! But I'm not allowed to look at them! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flying Carrot Steve Posted October 9 Share Posted October 9 That Singer Porsche has been on TV a few times in recent years. Looks great but absolutely mental price IIRC. I think maybe it was 5th Gear who took it round Llandow circuit? Could have been another show though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My mate with the MK, is in a build forum with a guy who works for Singer here In the UK. Apparently his level of build is unreal and he has access to high level one off carbon fibre parts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
