I am new here. I like reading Practical Classics Magazine and I might subscribe to it soon.
Re: Introductions
Hello.
Micrashed - I have a Micra it is a shed.
It is however reliable, dependable and lots of other words that end in "ible". Over the years I have had many "practical classics" and quite a few that were thoroughly impractical for the job but a huge grin factor.
The addition of 4 children in recent years has meant reigning in my spending and so I now have the Micra. Im on the lookout for something else, probably some BL based Tin in the guise of a 1300cc A series or 2.0 L series Maestro.
I live in Lancashire, work in a hospital and smoke a falcon pipe and have an unhealthy obsession with vintage Gillette shaving gear (my daily is a 1962 Slim Adjustable).
There you go.

Mmm, nice K10. Has Anna Friel ever sat in, on or anywhere by the car? J

Re: Introductions
With those crusty sills and poundland wheeltrims, I doubt it very much.
I went to school with Anna ( or brace face as she was cruelly called when she was 13) and she wouldnt lower herself to anything with less than OE spec trim and accessories*.
*may only have happened in my dreams....
