I'm going to book into Rockingham for the 15th August for a trackday. Unfortunately its not that close to me (Cardiff) but a few of the guys I know from Boxa.net are going (I think about 20). I'm a newbie to this having only ever done a couple and never at Rockingham but I'm looking forward to it.

Those 6750 miles(including depreciation , road tax and fuel at 20 mpg(?) cost the first owner around £3.32 each!

£3.32 per mile, sounds a bargain
.... and I reckon from here on it it'll cost me £0.00 per mile in depreciation - assuming I do a couple of thousand a year which I intend to. Last edited by m33ufo; 21-06-2009 at 08:59 PM. |

Should have been collecting my new CSL today but frustratingly it's been delayed. The last few days seem to have gone by very slowly...fingers crossed by this time next week I'll have the beauty

Looks like I have another couple of weeks hanging around for this car. Long story but the seller has been unavoidably delayed and refunded my deposit until he gets back to the UK.
I've never been that patient but am trying my hardest not to buy something else....I keep seeing f360's, GT3's and the like and being so tempted! I did look at a 2004 GT3 Club Sport in Porsche Cardiff mid-week but it has the full roll cage which makes the front a little too cramped for me. I must resist |

I think I noticed yours on Pistonheads a few days ago and yes I almost emailed you There are a few things that make me inclined to hold out for another couple of weeks......6750 miles, AP brakes all round and KW Var.3 suspension My previous cars have been totally standard so I'm looking forward to trying out this car with a few well considered upgrades fitted. I don't deny it's been a hard couple of weeks already and a harder 2 or so still to go. I've got cars buzzing through my head 24/7 from CSL's, GT3's and F360's to M6's, Gransports and various AMG's. It's a hard life |

Just had another look....great looking car. If mine ends up not happening for any reason I'll be happy to get back in touch with you if it's still available.
Good luck |
