No Escorts Aunty Post ? Mk1 Mexico ?
Nope, these were my sports car days although I did have a new 1.6 mk 2 as a company car at one time! Actually, thinking it through, I had a Mk 4 Cortina before that, in 1978 (very smart in Midnight Blue) so the Escort had to be about 1980. |

How do you post photos on here?
|
|
By:
doubleagent, you need to upload the photos from your PC into the photo gallery that you have on here. You will have to wait until the mods have approved your pictures, this shouldn't take long.
The click on 'insert photo' underneath the reply box. Choose your picture from you gallery, double click on it, then it should appear here Lets just test that, hang on   |

I have a photo gallery on here? I had no idea.

Diva.....much though I love you, and your beautiful picture, it has not much to do with my thread!
No doubt we will now be seeing stunning scenic views, instead of motor cars, which is what this thread is (or was) all about! |

By:
doubleagent.....you don't have a photo gallery until you create it!
You need to first save your photos into "My Documents" or "Downloads" first. Next open any thread (it doesn't matter at this stage) and click "Insert photo". Now click "Upload Photo" and then "Add from my Computer". Go to "My Documents" and double click the photo you want, then "Start Upload" and your photo will be there in your gallery. Click "Finished" and it will say "Pending approval. If it is not approved it will be taken down. When it is you can go to the thread you want to post it on, and click "Insert Photo". Double click on the photo and it will appear in code ready for you to send. I hope that's clear, as it took me ages to figure it out, because all the well meaning helpers left out too many of the processes, for it to work! |

Do you remember the Rover P4, AP?
|
|
By:
Yeah, I had to remind myself of what it looked like, and perhaps it was a decent car, but never in my thoughts!
On the other hand the P5 Coupe was pretty special! Like a "gentlemen's club lounge" on wheels! |
|
By:
I think this car carried politicians/civil servants etc around Whitehall before the Jaguar. I'm sure I remember John Nettles driving Harold Wilson's P5 in a documentary some years back.

That looks like a nice one as it's a relatively recent picture!
Not much use for anyone over 5'10" and/or with big feet (same as with My MX5)! I had a drive in one of a workmates Midget. The thing I recall, on getting in, was the "beam" across the footwell which, having got my feet over, was still touching the back of my calves! |

Look at this beautiful P5 Coupe.....

The joys of knowing and caring fk all about cars, for all to see:
    Next car will probably be another estate. Maybe silver. |

That lake looks remarkably like Derwent, I guess on the scale of things they arnt that far apart

By:
In truth most lakes do look pretty much the same

Must have been a bit difficult in 1974 going from E-type to Fiat 128
Yeah but the 128 was mainly for my wife, and I used it on some of my trips to Carlisle where we were developing some pubs into "Falstaff Steak Houses" on the lines of "Berni Inns". The thing was that the motoring expenses were so generous, that I was "Quids in" with the Fiat, but only, kind of, level with the Jag. The reason I'm back on here, is that I couldn't find my recent post, where there was much derision of my last too cars as being "hairdressers cars" I said that next time I change I will ask for permission first. Here is my current car which is fabulous with it's 3.2 V6 four wheel drive and DSG gearbox.... [ This image is no longer available. ] [ This image is no longer available. ] [ This image is no longer available. ] Here is the one I am "hovering" over..... [ This image is no longer available. ] The only niggle is losing the 4x4 and DSG gearbox. Life can be so difficult some times! |

Do they have any other colours beside black ?
Not my favourite. |
|
By:
The BX was my first in black and I said I wouldn't get another one.
The crazy thing is that the under coat was white so every little chip was accentuated. When I got my RX-8 there was no question that it was going to be my only red car since '89 most of the ones in the brochure were red and looked so special. When it came to it I didn't like the red at all and was hooked on the black one in the showroom. |

Looks like you were trying to find the perfect car ever since you got shot of the Anglia but up till now haven't quite managed it

Looks good. I would only buy an old Porsche if it has less than 33,999 miles on the clock.
