    It is amazing that when they measured the centre of holland and built the church there with the plaque all those years ago that they were only a few meters or so out! Can't remember the exact distance they were out but quite remarkable

    I went to the tech-school or MTS as it was called as well, Don't want to remember how many moons ago that was

    And the good old Grand Cinema..........brilliant

    Think they compromised in the center as otherwise it would be in the river Eems (or Amer) hence the name Amersfoort

    Good look with your visit to view and hopefully buy the car. If this one leaves the country how many Royal Blue 260s are left in the UK?.

    Which route are you taking back to Friesland, going Via Harwich to the Hook?

    Regards Nick de-Vries.

    And now ladies & gentlemen........yes....#170 is now standing in my garage!!!! Drove it back home yesterday. Was a long but very!!! nice trip! I now know that queues are nice when you're sitting in a 260...and driving it is surely something special.
    The car is excellent!! The seller was ..and the car is indeed very good. Colour suits the car very well and can't find anything that doesn't work or looks bad.. Interior is like new...
    I can go on like this a few hours...I am very happy to own this car!!!...

    NB. Please sent me the questionaire ....haven't received one but I want my name in green.....!!!
