I totally agree Erik,
Grasp this...... I had known for quite some time, of an F1 owner who lives only a few miles from me. I even know his address and phone number. But I felt that it would be inappropriate, to even consider contacting him. I felt that I should only approach the owner, if I was ever to meet him by chance at a race meeting etc and only then.(it even had a HDF kit fitted, do you realise how painfull that was

.SO NEAR, YET SO FAR)
One owner, who frequents our forum on a regular basis, contacted me via PM. So I took the opportunity then to ask, if it was possible to view his F1 at his convenience. Which he accepted and I was extremely greatfull for.
It pays to be courteous and polite at all times and respect the owners wishes if they want to remain unobtainable. This also goes for dealers as well!!
(There are a few other owners, I would like to PM me

)
