Indeed!
No point having a super light car when I'm a lard arse and it rarely gets used due to circumstances.
So a heavier car that can have a bit more use should be better.

It's less the weight (although that's showing some definite middle age spread) and more the bloated rear 2/3rd's of the car.
You should just miss out this intermediate step and get the inevitable SELOC approved 911 if you want a lame attempt at rear seats.

I'm steering clear of this conversation, given I halve the power to weight ratio the second I get near the VX.Me or the car?It's less the weight (although that's showing some definite middle age spread)

Looks great 
Is the Donkey on a commission 
If you are travelling up to drive the car home, I can recommend taking the A701 back down to the M74/M6. From Broughton down to Moffat is one of the best roads in the area.

Hmmm good point Gary! Hadn't thought about that
Driving back is the easy bit, arranging a cost effective trip up is trickier.

Looking forward to seeing it👍
No doubt your 2 back seat drivers will be ensure you pile a few miles onto this one 😄
Hope the VX is going to someone who will look after it as you have

Good! You've seen more of it than me then!
I've been assured it's been well looked after.

I didn't have an extensive look over it (I was more interested in the blue one with forged wheels at the time), but nothing obvious seemed out of place - it def had 4 wheels for instance. And glass. And lights...
