Spa cancelled, can't make many meets due to increased responsibilities with my kids - hence the fact coming soon will be my standard-ish yellow 20vt @ 97k miles and my modified (325ish bhp) electric blue plus at 138k miles.

Bargains to be had, watch this space............or more accurately, the "for sale" sections crazy

Do you need to sell both Proccy or could you justify keeping one?

I'm sure you, like most others on here, have formed a bond with your Coupe, so if you sold both, you'd be back soon enough!

Also you've stuck by your plus through countless issues, stick by it once more!

Proccy as you have left it an open question then the answer is no!
Sell one keep one, you'll only end up buying another plus and then 3 more engines laugh

What will you move on to proccy, that will give you the enjoyment of a Coupe, with mates you can torment when you see them? laugh

You know your place is here with us, especially as no one else would put up with you anyway tongue

Sell the yellow one, keep the Plus smile Your heart, soul and money has gone into that Plus, you'll regret getting rid of it.

Will SPA be back Paul?

As for the Turin trip its a no brainer as far as I am concerned.

I doubt its worth getting rid Steve is it? Especially with Turin looming

Is that confirmed Paul? Would love it to be so.

Turin will be a real occasion and an epic european drive.

But Spa being back on would trump Turin for me smile

Steve, I empathise with your family commitments, my own have contributed to me cutting down to just the one. But your plus, after all you've gone through confused cry

Spa should be back next year assuming the new organisers get their act together.

That was certainly their intention when I last spoke to them.

This will go one way. You'll change your mind and you'll keep your Plus.

Ditch the Broom.

Its likely to be at the end of May next year. The main organisers will be an Italian club.
When we have more info we will put it up on the forum.

I agree with everyone keep the plus you have been spoilt having 2!! having had 7 and keep coming back noticed harder to find one these days so think you will regret it unless your planning to replace it with something special!
you WILL miss a coupe without a doubt..

You're looking at it all wrong. What you really need is a 3rd coupe.
