Car appreciation... the aesthetics, the engineering, etc

and the fuel gauge?

Dodgy sender most probably.

Thanks mate! and what a well chosen username for this problem :P

Haha more to do with my general idleness (see post count..) but it is rather apt.

Really want another mini now, a nice 1380cc Clubman with 10" wheels... but I haven't driven my current car for 3wks so really can't justify it + would mean less room for bikes!

^ that is lovely. Miss my old 'Scort.

That's it. This thread has jumped the shark.

I just had to Google "jumped the shark".

The ford was on the last page.

Better.
Much better.

Not sure I'm keen on this Porsche but interesting nonetheless.

I'll be honest, it's not like I'd own the Escort van but I can appreciate it's retro stylings.

That's it. This thread has jumped the shark.

it could have been worse. at least those tyres fit the rims.

the green machine is back! sporting new wheels, too. anyone know a good tyre fitter in the south? i need to rebalance the front wheels and and fix a leaky tyre (it's brand new).

Well it was pretty bad after 120 miles driven yesterday non stop

Just a thought. Your SU has a dash pot on the top, a black knob to unscrew?
If it has unscrew it pull the plunger out and squirt some 3 in 1 oil or light engine oil in and push the plunger back in and screw it back.......

north weald first up

When? I'll come too!

Not bad.

Controversial.

Would.

Despite it being a Ford

Utter porn.

Controversial.

Oof. WB is far too long.

When? I'll come too!

i really, really don't want to bin it, as it looks like tuscany for the honeymoon is going ahead.

How would my Volvo fair against your MG do you think?
