    It has only got to last me a year or two so the plan is to get it properly clean in the Summer, maintain it and enjoy doing the lots of travelling that I have planned.

    In 2020, I hope to get a larger garage so then I can buy something that won't have to live outside.

    Basically, I bought a tintop because it has to live outside my flat because the garage is full of bikes and kit.

    Tin top is the right answer anyway.

    I suppose this will do as a stop gap eh

    Too feckin' late for a mid-life crisis, mate.

    That was the Aprilia 5 years ago !

    My next car will probably be a late-life crisis car.

    Nah. I'm more of a GT car person. None of your mid-engined flashy look-at-me nonsense.

    It will be a practical, front engined, RWD, V8 long distance car....a bit like a XKR I suppose.

    I've not settled on what it will be yet.

    Aston Martin?

    No 370 is not back on the road yet. In the garage on quick jacks. Saving some money for the Nismo wheels. Already got the Nismo bodykit

    Everyone said I couldn’t order the Nismo kit, thank you Glyn Hopkin Romford

    Something with that lovely Merc supercharged V8 in it hopefully. Sounds amazing.
