quantum2000 Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 Tried to have a chat with the driver of the compuserve 6r4 a few years again at goodwood festival of speed. What a grumpy fucker! Haha, yes that sounds like Stuart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Cakes Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 I knew a girl near Bakewell whose father had an ex-works 6R4 in Computervision livery. From memory it had competed in the Rally of Portugal I think, driven by Tony Pond. Maybe it's the same car? This was ages ago - maybe 1989? It was absolutely ace though. Sounds like Nick Cartwright? Now Ferrari dealer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeanB Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 It wasn't Nick (Nick took me for my first and second ever rides in Lotuses by the way, an Elan Sprint and an Esprit) but the same guy bought a 512 BB off Nick, and his son then went to work for Nick as an apprentice mechanic. Small world eh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Cakes Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 Very small world. I just remember seeing a 6r4 there when he lived near Bakewell but that would have been mid nineties now I think about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On a different subject I am sulking that no one laughed at my joke at Martin Rs expense earlier in this thread :-( :-) :-) I did Dean ( pmsl ), but I have to scrounge the odd cigarette ( technically I gave up 6 years ago ) off him when I'm really drunk at the end of a Sutton meet every now and again so don't want to get on wrong side of him. Don't tell him I said I found it funny though will you? Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Cakes Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 Are you coming to Lotus in the Peak Mr Cakes? Yes, hoping so! I'm all paid up but it depends whether I'm playing cricket or not!! On a different subject I am sulking that no one laughed at my joke at Martin Rs expense earlier in this thread :-( :-) :-) Don't know what I did there but my reply is in the quote!
