After nearly 2 years of being Esprit-less, having sold my S2.2 which needed an awful lot of work, that I didn't have the time to do, or the
garage to do it in, I decided enough was enough, it was time to find the Esprit I always wanted, a Racing Green S4s.

  

Not that many to choose from, and I nearly gave in a bought a purple S4 (bit different). Then as luck would have it, a green S4s came up for sale, within price range that looked like a decent car. I ended up seeing the car 4 times before finally making the deal with a few provisos for getting some things put right before delivery.

  

The car was delivered to me at the beginning of August 2004 and apart from a minor mishap with the clutch cylinder and no gears (luckily it happened on my drive way) I've had a huge smile on my face ever since.
