Trophy in Watford
Wow, just up the road! Mate the R400 looks sweet...did you build it yourself? I'd love to have one of those. Hope you didn't think i was completly mental laughing to myself when we passed, just with your lid on i thought you could've been The Stig!! Did i see you a year or so ago going along George V towards Harrow...thats the only other i have come across...maybe meet up sometime eh?
Anoher Trophy for me to look out for in Watford then! it's been a long time since i've seen one tbh though

Car factory built in 2004. Engine just refreshed (and fettled) so she making 232bhp, which is probably sufficient given the <500kgs weight and my skills as a peddler...
Your look was nothing compared to the open mouthed stare and point I get from lots of people; but I don't mind, it is a car which has that effect on people. As to looking like the Stig, I often get that shouted by kids, I take it as a compliment. Although I am a bit more talkative than him! But that isn't hard really is it.
With regards to being in #104 over towards Harrow, very possibly, but I get old and my memory is not what it was once
Would be good to 'kick tyres' sometime as you say we could go for a spin in the Superlight if you are OK with climbing in through the top of the roll cage, probably best on a nice sunny day, it does a bit 'lively' in the wet.

Hats off to you if you drive the R400 to work!
Anytime your free i'll bring my crash hat if you dont mind Valentino Rossi sitting next to you (its the only lid ive got at the mo)
I take it from your profile pic you've had the T on the track...ive yet to unleash mine on some smooth tarmac but im slowly getting ready...new brakes are on, next are the dampers & new tyres. Would like to take her to the 'ring...
I'll PM you & catch you soon...probably not if your in stig mode in ur 7!!

I quite often take the R400 to work, it doesn't help much with the sensible accountant reputation, but never mind things like that hey :lol:
I have spare lids, which have intercom headsets in them, makes it easier to hear passengers scream :wink:
I did have #104 at Cadwell and the Nordschleife, but since getting the 7 that has been the weapon of choice...
I will be in touch at some point
