It's been a while

Well it's been a while since the blog has been updated, nothing for over a year, well last year weather was terrible but the Ferrari is still going well and i'm loving every minute of it.

Today's post though isn't about the Ferrari, back in November 2009 when I created this blog the first post contained the following line of sadness after the Ferrari purchase.

"There is some sadness though as my beloved Escort Cosworth will be going to a new home, I imagine I'll get over that pretty quickly though :)"

Well I didn't get over it, I regretted selling the Cosworth from the day I saw it drive away. I had kept in touch with the new owner and exchanged emails over the last few years then two weeks ago came the email I never expected. He said he was thinking of selling, that was it, no matter what it took my old boy was coming home.

And here he is back where he belongs.



In the time the new owner had the car he did a full restoration, full respray, rust protection, engine gearbox rebuild, suspension overhaul, a very thorough job and he only added 1100 miles. So i got my car back fully restored and hardly used, can't quite believe my luck!
