Tuning

Got something to say, but it's not classic related? Here's the place to discuss. Also includes the once ever-so-popular word association thread... (although we've had to start from scratch with it - sorry!)

Erm, ok, is that a waste of a good R11, or are the gullwing doors a good thing and as such, enough to justify the butchery that's gone on there?

:sick: :scared:

Internal combustion? It's so yesterday, and you won't be able show it off on the M25. Mayor Sadiq Khan has seen to that. https://www.london.gov.uk/talk-london/h ... ssion-zone

Some vehicles are exempt from the charge.
.. Including pre-1973 vehicles, though should that not be anything built in 1979 or before, 1980 from next year and so? Or is LEZ immunity really sticking to the older "Historic Vehicle" VED class?

That 2CV brings a whole new concept to the term: "Woodie." But being green, that's debatable. The Nova would cure you of constipation, back when that Nova was new my junior managers had Novas. There was a spare Nova at my depot which I used whilst the Passat was in dock. Talk about light, the slightest puff of wind blew it all over the road. Imagine pocket rocket in high winds. A great car if you are eighteen, there again it would probably cost you a whole lot more for the insurance.
