had ham Posted January 9, 2009 Posted January 9, 2009 Hi guys, and a big thank you to martinmac for the steer/intro from PH. I hail from East Herts, have a '06 350 GT Roadster, which has been by far and away my favourite ever car (despite a long list of previous cars costing a fair bit more), and I have just last week chopped it in for a new '09 (run out I guess) GT Coupe for a rather ludicrously discounted sum. Should be here in a coupe of weeks... Anyway, hello! Quote
Maccaman Posted January 9, 2009 Posted January 9, 2009 Hi & to the forum. As somebody is bound to ask, I'll do it. Whats this long list of more expensive cars? Quote
had ham Posted January 9, 2009 Author Posted January 9, 2009 Hiya, well, I worked for Ford for a few years, had two company cars with the job (mine, plus wife's) and got to change each every 5 months/5000 miles ) - so lots of (10+??) XJR jags, 4.0 S/XJs, before/after that M3, Z4 (hateful, hateful), Merc CLS, 911, Tiger6, Volvo estate thingy, Boxter, others, not in any particular order. I have always been an complete eejit/prat when it comes it cars - be they company or bought with my own cash. I got the 350 2 years ago and it's the longest I have ever kept a car. It's just my kind of car and I can't wait for my new one to come. Tell me, will 313 Coupe Vs 296 Roadster make much difference in terms of speed/handling/grip? Quote

Trev-the-Rev Posted January 11, 2009 Posted January 11, 2009 Hi and I too plan to keep my zed longer than I have with most of my previous cars. It just ticks so many boxes for me. Quote
