Hi there, don't recall seeing a couple on here before.


Some couples actually met & got married on here! :)


Il have to look harder then lol


Feel for us guys, kinda slim pickings ;)


Maybe we should start a singles section up on here :lol:

d

Aimy, you can't be single with a flash car like that can you?

Welcome. Hope you find what you are looking for. I am like you and have a long list of fast cars that I have owned. I searched for a long time and eventually bought mine from the lotus dealer in Leicester. If you get one I hope to see you driving it about in it around Leicester.

another leicester member ? Where not met before have we ?


No, not met before. Had the VX for 5 months. Look forward to getting on some meets. Not sure if there are many other VX owners from Leicester? I am from Rutland water.

at least another 5 of us in and around leicester but if you live Rutland water might be an option to come over your way on a dry day ?or there is generally the midlands meet on the first Sunday of each month over Warwick way just a pub meet have a chat a drink and food if you want
Sometimes a good turnout but like always really depends if its nice weather or British weather 😃


Will take you up on this sometime. Rutland water meet would also be good as we could get the Peterborough lot to meet us there as well if they are up for it. Nice pubs too in Rutland.

Welcome to the forum. Just to point out though, the turbo is just as fuel efficient as the NA and in fact is technically more 'luxurious' (lol) thanks to optional central locking and leather interior, and more sound proofing! So for a daily drive IMO the turbo is better.

We didn't buy but looking at a red na one on sat


Are you switching from tubby to NA because they are close buy for sale, or is it just the color?

(best advice is to set yourself to travel to find a nice one, and to ask if someone local will come with you, if you're not 100% sure about a car.
Some have eagle eyes on here, and can spot something off by extremely tiny details, just with a few foto's)

The one we went to look at was the artic white car d turbo was for sale month or so ago. But there is an na one local who is a member on here we wanted to look at anyway with a few good choice mods ie pro race alloys Gaz coulover and 2ublar exhaust, it's not a case of traveling, agreed to look at it on sat and didn't want to mess anyone around on sat hence going last night to look
