I do yes Andy, but do not regret selling her...had the same feeling on an e-type I had for a few years and then sold,
was offered her back a couple of years later, but said no...once it's done it's done...:D

Or you could pop along to DL's and come away with this:

It looks lovely in the flesh.

Now that is beautiful.

Reminds me of an old flat mate in London. He moved into a flat in Beckenham we shared with the following:

Fiat Spider
VW Beetle
Laverda Jota
Suzuki GT750 Triple 2 stroke
Stereo
Bag of clothes
Toothbrush

He had priorities....

I was spoilt as a youngster and received a brand new, gold X1/9 with a cream, leather interior as an eighteenth birthday present.

It was fantastic fun to drive. But, the build quality was terrible. It was forever overheating, i had at least five radio cassette players fitted, none of which worked, three clutches and on one occasion the gear lever came loose in my hand.

How I didn't kill myself driving it, I'll never know. But , I'd have one now at the drop of a hat.

Is my memory playing tricks on me as........a friend's Mum had one (this must have been early 1980s) and amazingly I was allowed to drive it once. Bear in mind that I was still a teenager, but I remember being disappointed that the engine seemed harsh and not particularly willing....

Also the original styling was much, much prettier than the one pictured.

Or maybe my memory IS going!
