    Sports Maserati Northern meet.

    Sorry for not replying sooner, I've been away on business for the past 3 weeks. With my job I can get sent abroad at a moments notice but as long as I'm in the country on the 11th then I'll be there. I can be there any time from about 14:00 onwards. List updated... Sports Maserati...

    Sports Maserati Northern meet.

    If you mean the one with the registration number something like 89 JR then he lives next door to a friend of mine - only found that out the other day. Apparently he bought it brand new and uses it everyday as his daily driver. You may see it up for sale soon as he's thinking of selling it...

    Sports Maserati Northern meet.

    The Derby Pool location is good for me, I'm just over an hour from there and it looks like just the place - plenty of parking and opportunity for a few car photos. I've added me to the list of interested members: Emtee. LeeH? Adam? dickygrace? 2B1ask1? sibradbury. Steve B

    Monthly Midland/Northern meet in Northampton

    Unfortunately not far enough north for me, still a 200+ mile round trip. A lot closer than Ace though so I'd try to get to a meet every so often. Great for everyone in the Midlands though and as Loz says it would be good to support a members new business.

    my 159 is for sale

    I know Dan and Ben very well, don't recognise Christians name but probably would know him if I saw him. I'll have a look on the intranet and see if I can find any info on the open evenings and send it to you if I come across anything. You've certainly got a lot more relevant experience...

    my 159 is for sale

    It's a small world, I work in the Powertrain department so I sit just across the office from the Powertrain Systems guys. Unknowingly I've probably seen you there when you were doing your placement. You should definitely come along to the open evening and get some details of the...

    my 159 is for sale

    Yes I'm an engineer at Bentley and that sounds almost exactly what I did. When I first started work at Bentley I owned my own car for a couple of years so I was a bit older when I had my first lease car. Over the past few years I've had Golf GTi's, Seat Leon Cupra's, Audi A3 2.0TFSi's etc and...

    my 159 is for sale

    I've had several cars through the Bentley car scheme and it's certainly the cheapest way to drive a brand new car. The monthly lease isn't too bad but the insurance really pushes the price up. You have to insure them through one of two approved companies and they aren't at all competitive with...

    RAF Brize Norton Families Day Saturday 11th June 2011

    Hi Spike, I didn't make it last year but if there's room for another then please count me in (and the Mrs) - sounds like it'll be a really good day out. Looking forward to it already. Spike62 3200 GTA (Spike) Emtee 4200CC (Miles) Easyplan66 4200cc (Andrew, Deb & Jessica) Loz...

    Auto Italia - Gaydon

    I’m very pleased with it – it’s a fantastic car to drive and it has so much character. I can see from the big folder of invoices and receipts how much time and money you invested in it! I bought it from the guy that you sold it to at the end of last October. I don’t think he really knew...

    Auto Italia - Gaydon

    Hi Roger, That would be me! As you can see your old car is still doing loyal service and is in fine shape. A credit to how well you looked after it earlier in its life.

    Auto Italia - Gaydon

    As you say, not to everyones taste but you've got to admire the amount of work that's obviously gone into making it. It certainly got everyones attention at the show. I could be wrong but it looks like a Hamann Motorsport creation in which case it's got 673bhp which makes it a good car in...

    Auto Italia - Gaydon

    Evening all, Thanks to everyone who was at the show today for a good day out. It was great to meet you all and I'm looking forward to catching up with you all again soon. I thought we flew the Maserati flag well - we certainly had as much presence as Ferrari. Here's a few of the photos I...

    Auto Italia - Gaydon

    Surprised there aren't more takers for this event. I thought the Auto Italia shows were amongst the most popular in the calendar and looking at the forecast even the sun is set to shine! I best get outside and get the car polished up - count me in. See you all at the Malt Shovel bright and...

    Cholmondeley Pageant of Power

    I'm planning to go to this event next weekend with my 3200. I've not been before but lots of my work colleagues have as the event is sponsored by Bentley - general opinion says that last years event was well worth visting and this year should be even better. I'm told that it is very much a...

    Llandow track day

    Sorry for not getting back to you sooner - I've been overseas for the past 3/4 weeks with work and had no internet access. Unfortunately I'll be on another work trip on the 26th so won't be able to join you for the track day. It's a real shame as I would have liked to see what my car can do...
