Sadly the answer to that is yes!

I know I've got what I've always wanted and i am glad that i did it so that i could get the whole Countach thing out of my system.
But even the kit car version of the Countach is just so complicated and so expensive, that with my limited resources and single-garage, it's not as much "fun" as the Sammio!
e.g. i need to fix a squeak on the rear wheel and investigate a weird noise from the clutch, with the Sammio that's not a problem to do inside but i simply don't have the room to do those indoors, so i have to wait for a dry weekend where I'm not busy. So time is moving ever on and I'm still not actively out driving and enjoying it as much as I'd hoped.

I would 'like' to get all of the big jobs done and enjoy it for a season or two, but I'd also like to build another Spyder (sorry i keep forgetting the Ribble name!), 2L based, but this time with doors, a heater!, possibly 2 humps and a few other differences to my 1st build. But we'll have to see how things go
