Gert! I'll never forget my first ride in your car! I just registered a few minutes ago as I am on the hunt for my old Birkin. I ended up with an Esprit SE after selling mine to Stan (soareyes) a while back.
Hopefully it's sitting around in a garage and being unused as I miss it dearly. That being said... if I can't find it... hmmm... maybe you would like to try the Esprit out...
Steve.
Here is the for sale thread with my old car in it. I'm going to try and contact stan, maybe someone here knows where it currently resides?
