New Owner London / Dorset

paulyb · Post by **paulyb** » Mon Jan 08, 2007 7:14 pm

Been lurking on this site for a long time now during my prolonged search for a 2.7RS.
I've now become the proud owner of a 2.7RS Sport which I bought from Lee Maxted-Page. Without wishing for this to appear too much of an advert for him I would like to say that Lee was very helpful and a pleasure to deal with.
The car is white with blue script, #0143, previously owned by Lord Mexborough. It is in lovely condition, but there are a few small things I would like to change, so apologies in advance for the numerous questions / posts I may have - go gently!!! I won't be picking up the car until next week, so no photos as yet, but I'll make an effort to get some and post them up shortly

If anyone might have any details on previous history...etc of the car please e mail me
Thanks
Paul

welcome to DDK

Car sounds great, look forward to sseing some photos.

We (DDK) were lucky enough to pay a visit to Lord Mexboroughs private collection in 2006 as part of the Northern Event. He has some very nice cars

Excellent to see another RS joining the DDK

enjoy the club and if you need advice - just ask - there's a wealth of experience and knowledge.

Look forward to seeing your car at an event later this year.

As another member of the Dorset DDK clan I too am looking forward to a "Blast" but mine is still some way off!! However the pile of finished parts residing in the en-suite ( don't ask) is testament to my dedication to the cause
