I did go through a phase of desperately wanting a vintage motor-car. I was fully supported by the dear lady wife who is also, quite mad... I finally fell in love with an Austin seven (Chummy I think) but the lady owner had an inflated idea of its value. Couldn't do a deal and I then went off the ide...

All the car dealers I knew (back when God was a lad) never used to lock their cars, they all reckoned that if the cunts wanted it, they'd have it away and broken glass was a pain in the arse to deal with. I of course always go against the grain and lock everything. Didn't work when the scrotes wante...

Everyone had a Parka back in the day. The sooner you got rid of the fucking thing, the cooler you were!

Crombie's for the win!





And Brothel creepers or Brogues.

I've taxed worse! I passed p on an Interceptor many moons ago for £600, absolutely mint but some light-fingered twat had pinched the engine!

Oh, and the Vauxhall reg is M123 MOT so not as good as I implied.

The new plates look excellent, I am a fusspot so I CAN tell the difference! I'm really quite envious of your Triumph, wanna swap for a Jag/Mer/Dog?

I took the Jag down to TQ1 garage for its MOT and service tomorrow. I have a Corsa (what the fuck is with the indicators?) as a 'get me home' job, reg number MOT123! Just had a phone call, they had a cancellation so have MOT'd it early... it failed! Gutted... Not really, was sort of expecting it, it...

As the MOT is due shortly on the Jag (it's booked on for Tuesday, nearly a month early as I don't like leaving stuff to the last minute, it hurts my brain... ) I moved the cars around after taking the mutts to their favourite spot firstly in the Merc, roof down naturally as it was fookin' lovely out...

Has anyone suggested the Triumph Vitesse yet? I think (though I have never driven one) they are the canine's conkers, they sound fantastic and with a separate chassis relatively long-lived. I do know that you can fit the crank from a 2.5 to get a BIG engine. I'd love one to be honest but I never see...

I'm undecided between the Rover and the Triumph (had both, liked both) so how about a lazy choice... XJ6?

Yes, indeed they like to rust but then everything interesting did but they are super-duper vehicles to waft around in and surprisingly rapid when pressed.
