I could fancy a p6 v8 in good nick just for stuff like going to the races but I have no interest in fixing the things myself so it puts me off after my prev experiences with big old cars

yes
fair enough  but do you know these old rumbling monsters  - the p5b coupes  ??  something else  - they are superb
but no practical value of course

but for fun (not practical) but fun - get a bmw mini  for whizzing around town.

I'm not really that familiar with them, I've been reminding myself on carandclassic, I prefer things with a more caddish feel

pah practicality doesn't come into it, if you want that buy a second hand focus and paint yourself grey

I AM TOO FKN OLD
MY GIRLFRIEND TELLS ME I AM

I have lots of cars  but hardly ever drive now  for fks sake!!! ha ha

enjoy it while you have it

meanwhile  I am taking none of this sht   the media gone mad - its a media mad fest of total irrelevance

when whoever gets in I am more interested in the price of classics , cars , paintings, collectables (jugs, bowls, art in general)

No longer interested in the fight for equality  and you can bet that the good old tax payer will get fkn hammered every time

and have to work even harder.  when i was writing i was chucking out crap in the 70s about the soon to come 30 hour week

now we are facing a family with both parents having to work to keep- head above water


now how the fk did that happen coz when i left school it was never like that


you work it out

Election to cars, love it.

Worst car - Austin 1100 - decided to catch fire while siting in rush hour traffic.

Best car - it's old hat now, but it was my MK2 Jaguar, walnut interior, cream leather seats, manual change, 3.8 engine, pillar box red, spoke wheels, 2 spotlights, one on the front, one on the roof.  Set a record in it that my mates never beat, and no car can beat it today due to speed cameras. And by fack did it pulled the birds Cool

I still drive a Jaguar now, but racing and bird pulling days are long gone. Sad

brilliant  - good night - puts this media invented, puffed up , over stuffed media fest in proportion

meanwhile 70 dead as they sift christians from muslims as they slaughter them in Keynya  - all waiting for you in towns in cities in this country
and no one##



NO ONE - prepared to confront the issues  coz they need the votes to stay in for another 5 years

I had a go in Mk2, was a bit of a bus handling wise but was cool. Had a 60s muscle car for a while, was like a high speed tractor compared to the xjs (had that up to 140 on the m74 once Wink )
