nice looking place Lee, shame about them old motors cluttering up the place.
never thought I would want a list but now find myself needing one just to remind me: Clio V6 230, 5 gt turbo, 5 Gordini turbo, Megane RS 300 Trophy.

I think you must be close in having 10% of 610's in the country.

I visited the new cave today - very good indeed, heaps of space, 4 or 5 cars there when I arrived, and I have left mine with Lee for an annual service and some niggle sorting
