Absolutely the first thought that came to my mind when I saw this pic.Ram.

Kiran, you have officially achieved nirvana. This was not a collector's home, it was a Temple for me.
I a......OOO0000ooo....... (faints for a while)


...ERrr....(Recovers to faint again for another short while...

EErrrr...Huh?? ...eeerr (Recovers, not completely though)

As I was saying before my brief disorientation, Kiran You Lucky Dog!!
Loved your write up. Came from the heart. No one except the one in love would pen down something like this....(Almost faints again but recovers)... huh?? so where was I ...er ..yes as i was saying....
The pics are wonderful. Meeting with a Gullwing eye to eye and then getting a ride in it. Thats absolutely fantastic. You my man are the chosen one. Hats of to your friend for introducing you to a collection which is the envy of everyone here and then your new found friend who offers to take you for a ride in his Gullwing.
This is a sign of a true collector worth his mettle.
Unlike so many, who would rather have such marques of envy (or not) kept away parked for appreciation in a sterile atmosphere only to feel happy when throwing a loving glance to it or spend their time with their cars dusting it with a chamois, this man is for real. He has a thing of beauty, which is driven and maintained like it should be. Drive it and appreciate it. It was built for that. Dont park it and kill it.
A big hug to both your friends from my side
Please, please post more pics and as you promised, start new dedicated threads if required but keep em coming...... Plop!! (Faints again and falls down with a smile!!)
