Jay - Thanks mate, il hopefully be at ace on monday and at the Gaydon show so come say hi if you see me there.

Pete - No probs, we'll talk nearer the time.

Sarah - Its going into storage because im going back to uni in september, its a 2 hour drive from home and i dont want to put the miles on it.

Using it would also mean leaving it parked out in a street up north and i think it deserves better.

Also, being a student again will mean money is tight and its not practical using a car like that without the money to look after it 100%

Dont worry though, it will be in storage in the same garage as our DTM car. While its there the engine is coming out to be 'refreshed' so it will be in good hands :D
