Ciao ciao Excel

Hi Guys, I haven't been writing for a long time, unfortunately things have changed a bit for me in the last two years. Last year I had to sell my Esprit SE but the saddest thing is that last week I sold my Excel SE after only five years. I think I will miss him very much, much more than the Esprit, luckily both cars sold very well, and found a great new home. The Excel went to an Italian Lotus collector who already has several lotus between which Esprit ,Exige,Europa and Elite and also wanted an Excel.
It was not a purely economic choice, but unfortunately sometimes things happen that have higher priorities.
My parents are very old now, my father is also sick, I will have to take care of many things that concern the family and so I had to make this sad decision.
However these words are to thank all of you, I wanted an Excel since I was 12, I have always considered it a beautiful car.
I managed to restore one, and it looked beautiful, in fact it was very much appreciated by the new owner.
But I did it thanks to this fantastic group of people who are you, so thanks to everyone who helped me, giving me advice and clarification, thanks to everyone who helped me, in short, thanks to everyone, I will continue to follow you and I hope to be able to buy back an Excel.
Ciao Roberto

Very nice to hear those comments dude, but sad that circumstances dictated your decision, I think most of us have had to take similar decisions in the past but family comes first. Keep the faith, I'm sure you will be back.

Sad to hear you have had to sell your cars Roberto, it has been a pleasure to have you on the forum. But once you're in the Excel "famiglia", you're in it forever! Hope to see you back in an Excel in the future... :)
