Hi Bob and welcome, Good crowd on here and for local owners there are a few in Basingstoke and the south that post here regularly, they will, I'm sure add their welcome soon and then you can make contact. I'm down in the south west, but if you are ever that way and fancy a look at an MDA then...

Oh yes and there are BMWs too not that I would have one. (wait for the cries of anguish)

Brian, not sure of what is available in the states, but if I was looking to fork out $30K on a second hand car with four doors and a manual gearbox there would be only a few options. Merc E class or even S class, Jaguar XJ, Big General motors car (big for UK) we have the Vauxhall VXR8 which is a...

Keith, all it's missing is some melted chocolate!

Grady, with all that automotive porn, nothing is hanging ;-) As Clarkson would say, just off to the bathroom for a minute. When I get round to it and properly waterproof my garage I will put up archive photos of the race cars and a tin advert I recently bought, plus a few shots of my own cars...

That's not a truck. It's an Enterprise starship on wheels! I note it's powered on Hydrogen so warp factor 8 shouldn't be a problem.

Evan - Nice, I second the comments above, keep em coming!

several years ago a farmer in the UK had a run in with his local government office over something. The English way however was to go along with his muck spreader and spray the offices of said government in protest (or should that be in manure). No one got hurt but he did get national coverage...

Hi Jens, enjoy the forum. using R8 underpinnings, not sure if that has been done before and where would you get them from without paying a fortune?

So a fellow Yorkshireman! I got soft and moved south, but it does mean the 40 season is a little longer. Hope you enjoy the forum and the track days.

Welcome Gina, hope you enjoy the forum, how about a photo (of the Noble of course) and whereabouts in UK are you, many of us along the south coast and up to Basingstoke so you can always find like minded souls not far away.

Sounds fun, but I'm not sure I can make it this year, itinerary already full with little time for GT trips anywhere. Already have several trips booked (sans 40) and looking to do some track days, just not enough holidays per year these days, need to win the lottery and retire!

Hi Stew, whereabouts in the UK are you? There's quite a crowd on here from the UK and from all around the country (or countries of course, Wales, Scotland and N Ireland included) Immerse yourself and enjoy, if you are near others who have already taken the plunge get in touch, most of don't need...

I am trying to organise a track day for a few colleagues at work at the LLandow circuit in Wales on Saturday the 17th April. It is being done through an instructor who will also be attending and the intention is to book the circuit for the day as a private session. I have 6 cars/drivers lined up...

Do you think the IOW is ready for that sort of invasion? They are, after all a very reserved people and having several 40s screaming through their little villages might cause some upset - when do we go? (evil laugh)

Gary, may I add my welcome too. Love the IOW and try to visit every couple of years just to get my hit of 50s / 60s nostalgia. Not taken my 40 over yet, that could be fun although I would hardly get into second before hitting the opposite coast!:laugh:

Welcome Dave, that's a lot of power for a front engined, rear wheel drive widowmaker. Make that switch to mid engine and a roof, reduces your laundry bill :laugh:

MX5. As already requested, please show us you name. You are very welcome here and will find a wealth of information if you are thinking of buying or making. Also whereabouts in the UK are you? there are a number of groups and individuals around that would be happy to see you and show you around...

Unless Toni has changed his decals the number on the rear clip is on the wrong side. It could be the MDA red car from the 2007 Exeter kit car show photos posted on this site. I think that car did go abroad, possibly to Spain. It is a MK1 and red so could fit the bill. I don't know who it was...

Trev, it looks good, I notice the walls are painted white too and that makes a difference. If you are working over the winter, then you might need a heater too!
