R32Ash Posted November 13, 2005 Report Share Posted November 13, 2005 Spotted at about 3pm today, looking rather forlorn with it's engine hatch up and the RAC parked behind. I see the car ( the orange Murcielago) quite often around here actually, but it's usually moving! Oh. I'd better say that it was on the A636 Denby Dale road out of Wakefield - near Bretton for anyone who know's the area - parked up in the entrance to a riding school (I think). I wonder what will be said in the 'Fast Fleet' section of next month's EVO ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mollox Posted November 13, 2005 Report Share Posted November 13, 2005 Dunno, but I'm sure someone will be along to give you the inside line shortly TSN - its everywhere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R32Ash Posted November 13, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 13, 2005 Interesting. I know Insurance_Jon and his brother 'borrowed' said Lambo for a photo shoot quite near to this 'spot' (and near where I live). I take it there are other covert operatives around as well.

shark_90 Posted November 13, 2005 Report Share Posted November 13, 2005 Now why am I not surprised. Hungover Jon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Insurance Jon Posted November 14, 2005 Report Share Posted November 14, 2005 Only just seen this post. I've text him to ask but he won't be up yet as he lives large at the weekends. I'll update you later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shark_90 Posted November 14, 2005 Report Share Posted November 14, 2005 Nothing to do with you and your kid "borrowing" said car then Jon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Insurance Jon Posted November 14, 2005 Report Share Posted November 14, 2005 Panic over, it was just a snapped fan belt. all fixed now. Don't think for one minute he let a 20 YO drive his lambo shark. although he followed me down to the body shop so he could give me a lift back to work when I dropped the fezza off for a respray a couple of months ago. you don't realise how big they are until your sat in them!

[/ QUOTE ] I bet it made the RAC guy's week - working on a Sunday's not all bad when you get to fiddle with a Murcielago. And here's one of the pics Jon posted from the photoshoot his brother did. I'm writing my letter to Santa this morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

garcon magnifique Posted November 14, 2005 Report Share Posted November 14, 2005 [ QUOTE ] Panic over, it was just a snapped fan belt. [/ QUOTE ] Glad to hear it. I'm guessing that's one of the highest mileage Murcielagos around, given all the places I've read about it going to!

v15ben Posted November 15, 2005 Report Share Posted November 15, 2005 Not good to see the poor old Murci by the roadside. He does use it all the time though so a bit of trouble has to be expected. Do you have any idea what mileage he has got up to now Jon? Hope to see the car on some of the FchatUK drive outs and we are on the same ferry to Le Mans Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Insurance Jon Posted November 15, 2005 Report Share Posted November 15, 2005 about 35k. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Problem_Child Posted November 16, 2005 Report Share Posted November 16, 2005 [ QUOTE ] about 35k. [/ QUOTE ] What, in a year? That's got to be the highest mileage Murci in the world! Personally I loved the Le Mans picture in Evo- that's got to be the dearest washing line in the world... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Insurance Jon Posted November 17, 2005 Report Share Posted November 17, 2005 he did most of it working for EVO, and remember it realy is his daily driver! The guy isn't a multi milionaire either, he grafts, not 9-5, but grafts non the less! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simonb Posted November 17, 2005 Report Share Posted November 17, 2005 Is this Harry that we're talking about? Or Mr Yu?? Not got a copy of Evo to hand so not sure who you're talking about - intrigued none the less!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simonb Posted November 17, 2005 Report Share Posted November 17, 2005 Speaking of Evo - does Richard Porter ever visit these TSN parts?? He's the man behind SniffPetrol isn't he? Surely a regular on here then?? Or is he a 'watcher' who gets material yet never posts!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garcon magnifique Posted November 17, 2005 Report Share Posted November 17, 2005 Neither. Check a copy of evo, or the fast fleet reports on www.evo.co.uk ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
