Title: Tourette supreme
Post by: Bob Purton on September 16, 2006, 10:25:06 PM: Hi Everyone. I would very much like to own a Tourette supreme, As only about 4 exist I know my chances are very slim but im working on the theory that if you dont ask you dont get! If anyone ever hears of one coming up for sale I would very much appreciate them tipping me the wink. Thanks, Bob P

Post by: Peelpower on October 01, 2006, 01:07:19 PM: Hi bobbybubble,
have a look at ebay Item number: 260036350972 there is a Spatz for sale but not complete. When i saw Otto last Monday, i asked him about the future of the Museum and as well the rallye. In the past, Otto and Mariane had lots of trouble with the local building authority, and it seems that keeps them away to start the museum and the rallye again. Although i mentioned it was an important appointment for all international enthusiasts of micros to join together, i don't think there is a comeback as it was. Let us see what future brings.
Keep on bubbeling, cheers
Ferdi

Post by: Bob Purton on October 07, 2006, 12:47:50 PM: Hi Stuart. You can be cheeky all you like but as I was on holiday during Goodwood and never got the chance to sniff around the pitts I cant help you there! The picture of the mopetta was sent to me by my friend Andy Carter, the pipe puffing racing driver himself! {contrary to popular belief I do have some friends, not many admitedly!} Any progress to report on your quest for a Mini comtesse? Regards, BobP
