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!)

That's a real shame, Rich. The film featured the legendary Nissan March Super Turbo (K10-based supercharged and turbocharged pocket rocket) and Anna F was writhing about in the back seat with no clothes on.

If only you could see the clip, I'm sure you'd have liked it. :D

Very cool!
My dad has a friend with a Land Rover MG-B which I always thought looked like a bit of fun.

Who needs brakes when there's a whacking great cissy bar on the front of the thing? :lol: Looks nice though. Imagine the fun you could have with that in a shopping mall after hours. :twisted:
