Good to see you got the car Malcolm - I think we need to get you a smaller front number plate and bracket....

Thanks Dave, and thanks for your advise and help. I will be along to see you when the weather improves... maybe we can talk number plates then....
I wondered who bought this car that was advertised on pistonheads and was for sale in Dick Lovett in Swindon. Seems like you bought the car for a good price. I would be surprised if there were as many as 6 Heritage's in the U.K.
You talk about going to Le Mans, I believe the company that used to be called Roush, but is now called Mountune have organised gatherings for Ford GT owners to Le Mans. I believe the guy who organises it is called Dave Jones.
There is a person on here called Viper, who lives in the U.K who could tell you more. If you cant find him on this site go to the Jaguar owners site, Datsun Z Club site or Mustang owners club as I think he spends most of his life on these Forums.

A big congrats on getting your prestine GT!! More importantly, you've decided on the fastest color GT, ask me why I know.....
Like GTDrummer, I too have an office in London and, in fact, I'm due for a visit ~June. Perhaps if timing works out, all 3 of us could get together for a few pints!

Thanks, we will see - Dave Jones posted right above you. I have been going to LeMans for nearly 30 years and I take a group of about 25 people so much as I would love to go with him I will probably stick to what I do .... it doesn't stop us meeting for a beer or two though

Thanks - I will try and help in any way I can with your trip to Le Mans. First bit of advice - if you havent yet booked your campsite or hotel then I would get onto it soon as it can get pretty hard to get anywhere close to the circuit this late..... I booked our campsite tickets in May last year.
Cheers

Hi Mal.........Congratulations on your fine purchase.
Lots of people are finally realising these cars are holding well here in the UK and what fantastic value they are against the usual lumps of depreciation that's available.
Not sure where you are in London but I'm in Kent, had mine over 4 years now and it's still an awesome car

That garage is about 200 metres from my house - small world! Would love to meet up - please keep me informed. I get involved with a number of event as well so it could get busy!

Congratulations on your acquisition! Welcome to the world of one of the greatest cars and car boards around! Enjoy!
Mal perhaps you could email me on funguschop@gmail.com
I'll mail you back with numbers etc. If you're ever bored weekdays I'm always around if you have a run out.
BelgiumGT........UK spec is just dim dip headlamps known as side lights and small turn signal lamps on the side of the front wings

@Viper. i was only teasing It's allways funny when Uk cars drive buy on the highway Brussels-Oostende. It's like sitting next to one another. Lots don't seem to bother with the speed limit. isn't belgium passing on speeding tickets?
It mustn't be easy driving such a low left hand car in the UK through traffic. I used to have a right hand drive cobra and had it converted quickly to a left hand drive.
