Hi everyone

I'm Walter from Motherwell and I am the lucky guy to now own Davy's GP. I can't believe how lucky I've been (fate perhaps) that all worked out the way it did for me. I've always been a mini fan and over the years have had a rover mini cooper sport, mini one (first out the wrapper at Douglas Park, Hamilton) and have access to the wife's R60 All4. I missed out on a GP earlier in the year and, in my disappointment went out and bought German then Japanese but always wanted a GP....then I emailed Davy (we chartted on line when I was first looking) and the rest, as they say, is history. Everything lined up for me - the Subaru BRZ sold quickly and I picked up the GP this week. It went straight into the garage as I was scheduled for an operation yesterday but the op has been postponed until Monday so I've had the opportunity to get out and about today - it's a real head turner and I absolutely love it. I'm a bit ocd (like Davy) so I'll try to maintain it as well as he did. I'm looking forward to meeting you all at some point and if you are ever down at the breakfast Tartan Tarmac meets at Eurocentral (last Sunday every month) you'll probably see me there.

Thanks again to Davy and glad I am 'part of the family' now.

Cheers - Walter

Welcome to NMS Walter, I'm just down the road from you in Hamilton so I'll keep an eye out for you.

Looking forward to seeing the car on a Manky Thrash one day ;)

Welcome along Walter sorry to hear about the operation being cancelled but at least you've got a chance to explore 0374 now. I sincerely hope that it brings you as much happiness as it has me and I'm sure you'll be made more than welcome here ...

Hi Walter and welcome to NMS.
You've bought a wee cracker off Davy and there's not many GP's about that are as well looked after as 0374 has been over the last few years.
Enjoy and be safe.
:)
