Re: Restoration Show 2018

I went. Wish I hadn't. 3.5 hour drive, £21 to get in, £12 to park, and TBH not enough inside to warrant the trip. Stayed for 2 hours, just to justify going, and left. Won't go again. And on a side note, seeing Fuzz, who used to approachable and available, fenced in with 'handlers' using stopwatches ...

Re: breakdown truck

Is it me, or are the "what should I buy next" and "Breakdown Truck" threads basically the same thing? Just links to cars for sale and discussions about said cars?

Re: breakdown truck

I've been flicking through my Voyager USB dongle - containing all seven series of Janeway's stint at the steering wheel - and am now at S04.E01, which is the episode in which 7 of 9 first comes into the story. 7? Most human beings with a pulse would surely have given her at least an 8. :oops: :scar...

Re: ግማሽ ወፍ

Not seeing a solution there, sorry, I too must be clinically dull of thinking.

Re: Yet another "what should I buy next?" type of thread..

IF and when my Jeep emerges from the garage it's currently residing, while we try and find/fit an engine that actually 'kin works, i'm selling it on and taking a different direction. Just took voluntary redundancy and am planning on taking some time off and riding the Trans America Trail . Weapon of...

Re: breakdown truck


On a side note, notice how old some of those ads are?!

I wonder how often someone gets a call about a car they posted 2,3 or 4 years ago? :shock:

Re: Today I have been ?????????????? to my classic
