Been getting warm in here hasn't it :lol:

Can I add my welcome to the latest of the tribesmen, if it helps I MIGHT be able to get a picture of the wifes 86 Year old Grandma with her 16,000 Mile 1995 Micra if you pervs .. I mean healthily minded people are interested :lol: . Not quite a classic yet but I have my eye on it for the kids when she finally stops driving :P

Now if we can only get Anna or even Jennifer to pose with it ...... the car is in Penwortham, a "posh" suburb of Preston so you never know :oops:

:lol: Either/or = good.

Both = better.

Please, new person, get those pics of vintage Yank car loveliness up sharpish, before Anna Friel's legal team succeeds in getting this thread sent to room 101. :D

Penwortham is indeed the "posh bit" where they all get out of the bath to have a wee.
I live in Ingol, which isnt.

Now that's really posh. I live in a slightly less posh place; they stay in the bath, but all move toward the deep end when nature calls.....

Ingol, depends on which bit surely, I thought it was Tanterton that the Ingol folk said was rough and some dispute the boundaries.

I used to work with a man who lived just off Redcar Ave, a fine chap of many years Railway experience by the name of Bob Thompson, not seen him since we finished and I moved away. He always reckoned Ingol was the posh bit...

I was born in Leyland and later moved to Chorley before finally escaping all the way up to the top of Scotland, but in between I had a few years in some ex council flats on the Callan. Now that made Ingol look like a desirable area........

Brave brave man.
Though I did my time on the shovel of the Newall Green area of Wythenshawe which was just as bad for 6 years whilst working at the San. I gave over locking my car as it was easier for me not to have to keep replacing the quarterlights.

Nice Pics Jean - you have your work cut out with the Stud.

That Stud looks promising, no paint but it looks solid :)

Micrashed, I know the feeling Re the leaving unlocked, I tried it with a mini 850 (fitted with a stage 3 1275 but still registered as an 850, the innocence of the time :D ). BaXXXrds still put the bloody window through out of habit :(
