Hi Pottsy

Congratulations! I hope you get great enjoyment from your car.

A few of those in the know will recognise your car all right. Bring it to the July meet, it won't be a stranger.

Can't help with your questions as I am from across the water a bit.

It's looking unlikely I will be able to make the summer meeting, but I still have fingers crossed.

Enjoy your car. Even with the gearbox problems, mine has given me more owner satisfaction than any car I have ever owned, and I am fussy about dynamic capability. I didn't say "perfect" mind, but it is awfully close.

There are a few owners in Devon/Cornwall, but I am not aware of anyone in Bristol itself.

The very best of British [and Irish and Japanese ] luck with your purchase.

Joe
