Have your say here, by contacting the Practical Classics editorial team directly through this forum. They'd love to know what you think of the magazine good or bad, so let them know here.
Hi, somtimes I like to browse around with google maps, and I wondered if the workshop is on there.I can get the mother ship "Bauer" (well the sign for it anyway ) but not the shop.I believe its in a business park?.I also think that its beside a motor car repair business "Motorvation"?.It would be nice to see the workshops location in a pic.
Both buildings seems to be kept secretive for some reason.............................?
Ha! I was in the carpark the day they took those images having a walk with tony Turner our archivist. We saw the car and shambled towards it, but didn't get our photos taken. Bad times. FYI the green Diahatsu Sirion parked near the entrance is my daily hack - was a free car that does 50mpg before you all start berating me... Good Autoshite car though, has one of their stickers on it and everything.
Hmm, I do believe that a Daihatsu Sirion (it's A before I except after an aborted attempt at a badge theft by a dyslectic vandal) must surely be every bit as poorly thought of by the general public now as the poor old Marina was back in the 1980s and '90s when it was going through its disposable banger phase.
Prime Autoshite fodder and all the more desirable because it can be mentioned in the same breath as legends such as the Talbot Tagora, FSO Caro and Kia Vagentis or whatever it's called.
They'll all be sought after some day, you'll see, then who'll have the last laugh eh?
J "Home is where you park it", so the saying goes. That may yet come true..
