Re: spotted this on ebay

OK, the little micro car was pig ugly but does have a certain sweetness about it that makes me want to take it home (probably in a plastic carrier bag!), put it in a glass case and throw sugar at it! The Pontiac - 'nuff said, and I've always liked 'em. As for that Rodius - even worse than t...

Re: What classic vehicles have you seen?

Ay up!

Re: Fifi and Friends

Ay up, lads! The simple answer is YES!!! The bounciness of the ride at the back is unbelievable and my spine (and indeed that of Mrs XN) cannot stand this much longer. Nothing done today - sitting the office while the movers were shifting stuff round me (ooooooooh, me aching head) then the Staff Mee...

Re: Fifi and Friends

Ay up! Couple of things have happened since my last post. First off, Fifi has new front discs and pads. These were fitted by our NACRO apprentices under my supervision.
