Hi everyone I've recently become the proud owner of a '98 20VT in Portofino with 35k miles. Love the car and the noise is very addictive. Are there ever any South Yorkshire meets? I've seen a few coupe's around, not sure how many are registered here though. Mike

Thanks guys,
Gary - Don't worry the paranoia will ensure I take care of that, I don't think i've ever kept my eyes on the dials of anything i've owned as much as this. I'm checking it weekly and I had it serviced by JBT last month so hopefully it should be ok.
X19_pilot - I'm in Dronfield but work in Sheffield and commute in my car everyday. Could I have seen you driving down Abbeydale road early one morning a couple of weeks ago?

I was coming down towards the crossroads by the Beauchief, I only caught sight of the rear quarter of yours. Good to know a fellow owner is not far away if/when I need help!! lol. There's a M reg 16v near me too so we're getting quite a few in the area.
Thanks Nismo. Great forum with some really good advice and knowledge. I will become a full member shortly.

Welcome Mike, watch out for that x19 fella he never buys a beer  We have midlands meets occasionally and also the agm is one to look out for - and of course we're having a coupé mini-track day at Curborough sprint course early june - you really need to try to make that and see the guys, make friends and see some good cars. And Marco
