breakdown truck

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!)

Rich, that R11 is disturbing, it disturbs me and it disturbs a child who's currently staying with me while its Mother gets home from her work. I need a barf emoticon.
The Oxford in the photo is a Series V, not a VI as stated so they've just borrowed someone else's rubbish photo, a shame as Diesel Farinas are rare, super sexy and desirable. 8-)
But you didn't half pull out the stops with that Automatic Renault estate jobbie. I'm loving that, what a stylish and practical jalopy that is.

It's a series, they do lots of entertaining things with cars. Dirt every day can be funny too, look at the last 2 episodes and see the "man sized gokart" ;)

Does the screen surround usually rot that badly?

Occasionally. But that looks more like it rolled over. Without a rollcage, it would have ended badly. :twisted:
