That is an impressive collection of cars there mate.
A new RR Phantom would complement the collection eh?

Wow what an amazing collection!! (excluding the prius) :wink: I can only imagine what those cars are worth
I got your email as well Darren. The porsche looks really impresive, you wouldn't think it was built, it looks completly stock!! Do you have any pictures of the build?

Hi Dan,
Thanks for the kind comments, I do have some before and after pictures of the Porsche just so you can appreciate the work involved.
You can see the shape of wings, lights, bonnet, bumper and sills are originally different. The under body had to be altered too.
little extra touches were the "home made" door handles I had cast in aluminium, the Audi RS4 vents grafted into the new front bumper, the Cayman door mirrors altered to fit Boxster doors, and the Techart rear spoiler. Finished off with 2007 wheels. Lots of extra work went into the interior also.
And you thought it looked stock
:lol: :lol:
Best regards

Well, as far as I'm concerned these guys have ticked all of the right boxes and I'm more than happy with the price they have quoted to me.
Just one thing though before I do decide to take the plunge. I have an estimated value of £17k on the car. This is however, subject to an approved valuation.
Is there someone in the club who is considered qualified to do this or will I need to contact an external source to carry this out and if so, who?
Thanks
Kind regards

It can buy you not having to go to work every day. That would be happiness :wink: Also not cringing everytime I fill up with petrol would be nice :lol: Only live once though so thats what credit cards are for :wink:
Excluding the delorean :wink: I think the Rolls-Royce Sedanca de ville is the nicest car in your collection in my opinion. It just looks stunning
