Re: Cars that I thought would be shit but weren't.

For me it must of been my base spec N/A 1.9 diesel xantia with keep fit windows. Although it wasn’t fast by any stretch of the imagination with the LHM suspension and armchairs for seats it really was a nice way to travel with the added bonus of no speeding tickets so you just sat back and took the ...

Re: What did you do today?

Today while the weather was nice I thought it would be a good time to repaint the roof of the car as it looked terrible condition as someone had hand painted it and the only original paint was lacquer peel and rust. The local pound shop were doing tins of black enamel paint and so I bought a couple ...
