Kimbers has a new Car

[Backmarker]

The fake carbon on the earlier S4's is IMHO better than the fake wood finish

Congrats Tony, can't believe you have even beaten me in aquiring a LOTUS ESPRIT! for the guy's who have just turned 40 I hope this is a good omen and it won't be too long before our dreams come true.

Make sure your father is sitting down when you tell him the news!

[Lotus-Ltd]

Wow! I don't go on-line for a day and I have to wade through 6 pages to be able to congratulate you Kimbers!

A fine looking S4. You're gonna love it!

Wow didn't see that one coming - Kimbers in an S4.

So that makes the S4 Series Esprit the Car of Kings then.

Oh and Red Squadron now has a new Squadron Leader -

Sqn Ldr Kimbers.

That colour is so choice...

[Kimbers]

I would like to make a complaint here.

When I asked 2 of our most esteemed members to view this car for me I specifically hired one member for his finger pointing qualifications. When i saw the pictures I was stunned that he thought his gift to be far too important to use on my car. Now far be it from me to be jealous but Bigsi got loads of finger pointing! And when his own vehicle broke down the finger was once again put to good use!

I say if you have a gift use it! Now I'm going to go home and spend an hour or 2 pointing at the kids, dog and outgoing bike just to get what I paid for in the first instance!!

[Advantage]

Rob said he'd point at you!

I think he's going for first, or ordering one more pint, or this way up etc etc...

(Mods remove if you want! )

Well done Kimbers I am truly very please for you Shame you won't have it for tuesday but i guess we have our first topic of conversation I really don't want to take the varnish off your moment but may i make a sensible recommendation for when you pick it up?

Don't make the same mistake i made and remember your tool kit - your not driving a Honda here you know and Lotii have a tendency to BITE YOU IN THE ARSE

Hope you enjoy yours as much as i enjoy mine

[Kimbers]

What tool kit? Mate, I would only F*** it up even more! Nope I stay away even from simple things like changing windscreen wipers. I changed my wifes a month ago and it failed it's MOT the following week on the wipers!

I'll have full AA cover by then.

Kimbers, I recall leaving my well paid job for the afternoon to view this car for you for free. And you complain.

Read between the lines, I was taking the pics and pointing at the same time. You got some freebies, just 'cos you can't see them doesn't mean that they aren't there.

Meh, some people.

[Guest Troy Halliday]

I can vouch for my esteemed college in this instance the pointing finger was in full swing and in fact had to be rested for at least a day. I am sure that should you wish to speek to the previous owner he will tell you of the extensive use of technical pointing that was involved.

I hope this will assure you that Bibticus Pointicus (BIBS for short) was in no way lax in the profesional manner in which he attended to the inspection of your new puchase.

[iainskea]

On a technical level, it goes something like this:

Kimbers: "Is that what I need on mine?"

Bibs: " No. You do need a new TPS though and a MAT sensor I think. Your ECU is being asked by a faulty TPS to increase the revs as it would settle at either 0% or 2%, making it think you want 2% throttle and resulting in a high tickover."

Waaaay out in the deep water there Tony - heh heh heh

Iain (no cpu in site)

[Bibs]

Yes please, I need those for when I drive my car :thumbup:

[Kimbers]

[geoffsmith]

Well done Kimbers - 3350 posts on the Esprit Forum and you've finally got one!

Anyone need a helmet or 2? Leathers? Boots? Gloves! Just let me know!

Swapping them for the posing pouch are you?

[Kimbers]

ARGGGGGG Thats just wrong!

[andydclements]

ARGGGGGG Thats just wrong!

But you didn't say it was photo-shopped, so we must assume it's a real pic of you.

[Kimbers]

Naw they Martyn's body and my head (made to look fat which i'm obviously not!)

[Katie]

I'd avoid the helmet......made you look like you'd had your face pressed in a waffle iron

[Kimbers]

You thought I was foxy and you know it!! To say I'm drunk may be an understatement!

[rocket63]

Isnt your helmet behind the pink thong !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
