The indicators are from a bus... one off fitting on the car... onone else has that, its great  looker, aint it?

Cardboard is always the best option, i can change it whenever i want, and best bit, is i can get the kids in the area to paint it for me

You know what, there I was at work with the page full of little boxes with red crosses where the pics should be (photobucket disabled at work) and I'm thinking "what HAS he bought". I guessed wrong, badly Posted Image

So here I am trying to clean my tea off the keyboard Posted Image

Don't let your age define you. It's a number, that's all.

Nasty D5 dieseasel with few twiddly bits from TWR, MTE, IPD and Eibach but 600 miles to a tank ain't to be sniffed at :-)

its got to be one of the best replicas yet, never saw the appeal of the proper 6r4, which also looked like a old farts metro that Blue Peter had chaved up

Oh dear...

I'd probably torch that thing if I saw it down my area, put the owner out of his misery of buying such a bad car whilst half blind...
