Re: 60s-80s cars for a film.
A lot of companies will try and get cars for street furniture roles in films this way. In the long run buying the cars you want and then selling them on may not cost anything, but if you want 20 period cars the the up front cost of buying them is probably not feasible. I offered the services of myse...

Re: What Car did you Pass up and Always Regret
Two stick in my mind, predictably both Mantas. I'd always promised myself a Manta A, and finally bought one 11 years ago. Just after I bought it I got my first club mag, and for sale in that was a Broadspeed Turbo. I was seriously tempted but had just bought mine. If memory serves the guy struggled ...

Re: Car SOS - New Series!!!
Just watched the VW episode, another great job. The only thing I'd ask is why change the lovely original reflective riveted number plates for those black and silver ones?

Re: Practical Classics restoration show, who's going?
I'll be at the NEC, but at a trade show. Looks like it'll be busy with the PC show, Gadget Show live and the CIH trade show.

Re: 'Modern Classic' Insurance

Just as the subscriber copies were hitting the mats 47500 derails and catches fire at Manchester. I t...
