Sigh, what does one do with these hoarders who live in a cardboard box in a hanger and spend all their money on Lotus cars.

:shock: :P :roll: :mrgreen:

Why do you need a house when you have a garage?

A pal of ours, who is very comfortably off, has built a large garage under his house for his significant number of old cars and wondered what to call it. He`s reluctantly settled on "museum" but that doesn`t seem right as they, mostly, don`t just sit there. Musing on it, even the word "collection", to describe the cars sounds a bit stuffy. I thought maybe, "selection" then I had a better idea; "confection". He can then call the garage a "confectionary". Perfect.

Picked up the car after having it spend some time at Nanolex Care Care in Knutsford aka Cheshire Auto Detailing. What a stunning job they did too....highly recommended! Even the 41 year old tonneau cover looks brand new.. :D

I just added a new friend to the Elan, the RS4. Almost 3 times the power, but more than twice as heavy. Lovely car though.

Been so busy house renovating that I had not been out for a ride in OGU yet this year. Went out today though for a spin and a steak. All was well except that I had to pump up one tyre first.

Did 250 miles today, went across the North Pennines up to Bamburgh and back. The car never missed a beat.
