A cheap club to join, but an expensive one to stay a member of.

He had 3 of them from new some years ago so is well aware of running costs etc.

Its only as a winter car so in the spring he said we can strip it out and have a blast on the taxi way - ala Stig!

My old man has a 5.3 softop in excellent nick.
Trouble is it drives like a barge with a jet engine and bottoms out very easily. the scuttle shake is horrendous as well

he also has a 1957 RR cloud and when he pops his clogs me and my brother will probably have a fight over it the jag can go to the nearest scrappers for all i care about it
