My new Ford GT
Here's some pics of me new Ford GT that arrived yesterday.
To say I'm happy, is an understatement.

I've put 375 miles on it already

Something I just put together for you David:
it was when we first met, too
fair ford, oh how i caned you
together we travelled far
not for a while, felt this fast in a car
been a long time coming from the yanks
It is with sincere thanks
that I sing farewell to my maiden
now that my wallet is fully laiden
hahahahahhaa

So, judging by the airport info, and the fact that you have only done 375 (very likely memorable miles) would suggest that you are in Scotland. Please feel free to let us know if you are willing to show off your car in public so we can come and drool . Pleeeeaaaassse

Seriously nice car!! Mates dad used to have an original GT40 and Ive always loved them since seeing it!
You've got to be tempted to sell it on for a big profit tho surely?

From ordering it from the USA to transporting it to the UK and driving it here, it was about a month.

Very nice David. Will the replacement be the same colo(U)r? I'm amazed that there is such a mark-up considering the ease with which you were able to get hold of 2, but one always makes one's own luck so good for you 
(Bet you've got an early 430 coming too damn your eyes 
)
Rgds,

Hi Chuck ! Long time, no speakee.
Yep, the next one will be identical.
No, I don't have my name down for a F430, I really really don't like the styling of them. I appreciate it's performance, but that fussy rear end, the naff wing mirrors and iffy black front vents .. nah.
