Default That's it S2000 PE has gone

I just watched it being driven off up the road



Gone to a good home, though. Simon (the new owner) gave me some Swiss chocolates and let me have one final top-down blast in it (so that he could see how the car performed without killing himself)

It was fantastic, grin inducing stuff

But now it's gone

It's a sad day when you get rid of your S that's for sure And you were far more attached to yours than I was with mine.

Just think of the life of luxury in France. You won't have time for driving with all that gardening to do.

Pete
I think it's all an elaborate ploy to get the car on the same land mass............ I predict a Swiss / French border reunion

Its a small price to pay, if only I had the balls to do it. Hopefully I will one day, best of luck Pete and I am sure...no in fact I know you'll be back in an S very soon, and you'll have no need for a hard top at all

'Tis a sad day indeed Pete

But hell, it's all in the cause of a great, fantastic, wonderful, exciting life changing adventure. You lucky, lucky bugger

(And just think of the fun you can have with all those gizmos on the Pug )

Pete,

Simon says he may consider selling the plate in a couple of months (when he's sorted out the reg in Switzerland)

I just wish you'd put in an appearance a week earlier than you did!!

Yeah, impressively bad timing! (and forgetting to update my email address on the forum).

Feel free to pass him my address.. I guess the name is less important.

Cheers

Pete
