For those of you who do not subscribe there is a couple of page article on Ross Harris's Highline 6. It's probable one of the best sixes in the country, but it would have to be seeing that Ross has spent more money on it then anyone else would be prepared to pay. Basically Ross has built himself a brand new six. If you get a chance have a look and be shown how to do a restoration the money no exspense route. Ross has just added another 6 to his collection as he has just bought an ex Munich Legends M6 Highline in exactly the same colour and spec. I look forwards to seeing that beast. I think a shark fest is needed so that 6 enthusiast can apreciate each others work. Anyone want to sudgest a location and date. I was thinking that we could arrange something on the Last Sunday in May?

Jealousy gets you nowhere. Now I have found where the talk of Weston Park is and the event is on 11th April, how about having a collection of sixes there. My M6 will be taxed then, so I may just come along myself. Unfortunately I'm out of the country until the 31st March from Wednesday so it won't be much use for me to organise things. However, perhaps Ross Harris could set the ball rolling and I will do what I can in the background. By the way Sohlman - its 4 sixes now. Just drove home a pristine 31.5k miles highline today - its won all the concourses in Europe in the last ten years. Will be a shame to put it on the track at Croft. Anyone fancy my old one? Garage is a bit full to bursting.
Joke  Joke - tracking it I mean.

I will have to agree with management as to having the day out as have just been accepted this weekend to go to the Indoor classic car show at Alexandra Palace with Ross. To say i am in the dog house does not even come close. I can't push my luck to much. Plenty of flowers and shopping bribery may allow for a day out. ------------- Sunday 10th July Brooklands Sharkfest and Big Coupe Day. http://635csi.mysite.wanadoo-members.co.uk/ - Coupe Events

I'm working on it Nigel, but this last two weeks she seems to be in a permanent bad mood with me and i have just bought us a (insert swear word here) kitchen. I will have to play things by ear as Alexandra Palace really went down badly. Oh well such is life. As you can read i am feeling a bit down as i have just had a barny. Oh well cars make me happy ------------- Sunday 10th July Brooklands Sharkfest and Big Coupe Day. http://635csi.mysite.wanadoo-members.co.uk/ - Coupe Events

Good luck James, mine gets all stupid from time to time, apparentley its hormonal !!! Like good old Jasper Carrott says, we suffer for years because of their hormones, then when they run out and a woman stands a chance of becoming remotely human, they go to the doctor to get them topped up again !! Any news from the IAM yet ? ------------- Best Wishes Nigel |

yes the kitchen exsperiment started two weeks ago, but like everything things always drag on longer than exspected. As for IAM, i have been sent the details, but have been a bit snowed under with work to make my first appointment. ------------- Sunday 10th July Brooklands Sharkfest and Big Coupe Day. http://635csi.mysite.wanadoo-members.co.uk/ - Coupe Events
