Hi,

I've mentioned elsewhere I'm looking for my first e-type but besides seeing them at classic car shows, I've never really got up close to one. Let alone sat in one.

Is there anyone relatively close to Bishops Stortford who would be able to put up with me for 30 mins to have a look around theirs (whatever type) and just have a general chat about experience? It would be really appreciated and I promise I won't overstay my welcome :)

Cheers,

Matt

Yeah, primarily it's rare that any garage anywhere near me has any up for sale (apart from a couple of £100k+ examples). I'd also rather see a real-world example..
