Welcome STASIK A4!
My best suggestion is to come to a Cobra meeting and meet the people who are building them, have made them, have bought them, modified them and broken them!. The meetings are very casual and you will meet some really helpful people with lots of experience and knowledge of Cobras'.
The Cobra Club of Victoria meets every first Thursday at the Mercat Hotel opposite the Queen Victoria market at 7:30pm new members are always welcome. If the weather is good usually several members drive their machines in for the meeting. (A good chance to look at some different cars and go for a ride!). Send an email or a private message to me and see if we can organise a ride from someone nearby, although I see Garret has given you an offer already that will definitely bring a smile to your face.
Event days are starting to slow down as the weather closes but there will be drive days that will be organised in the coming months.
Good luck with your journey!
Regards
Tony Cram
