fatharris Posted July 20, 2018 Author Share Posted July 20, 2018 1.8 Twin Cam? From the land of the rising temp gauge sun? Inappropriate? My money is on an MX5.

In 10-20 years time it will seem crazy how cheap we currently get them. Probably will be the MGB of our time. stephen01 and Datsuncog 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fatharris Posted July 20, 2018 Author Share Posted July 20, 2018 Which vintage? My Mk1 was probably the most fun I have ever had in a car.That's pleasing news to hear. It's taken me over ten years of driving, but I've finally got my POP UP HEADLAMPS.

fatharris Posted July 20, 2018 Author Share Posted July 20, 2018 1. Have kids. 2. Stare into abyss. 3. Panic. 4. Sprots car. 5. relief.Gonna sprot so hard. It made sense in a weird way, classic insurance was very reasonable, and the difference in MPG from Herman means the outlay is quite small really. I'd been offered it by a friend at a very reasonable price. The downside can be summed up in three words, which I'll elaborate on later. Meanwhile, the trolley is here!

mitsisigma01 Posted July 20, 2018 Share Posted July 20, 2018 Mx5 being obtained on the day when the sun gives in to the rain , you get to test the leaky roof immediately, top timing ! My pop up headlighted one has never had a FTP , it's had a few IDWG , I don't wanna go moments but minor tweeking and persuasions and she has tootled along , mine is looking ropey and sounding rough sometimes but she won't die gracefully.

fatharris Posted July 20, 2018 Author Share Posted July 20, 2018 This train is absolutely crammed. It also transpired I was sat opposite my correct seat, so I (rightly so) ejected myself. Even the ends of the train are jam packed. But not the join. The join is empty. The join is my domain. 17 minutes left on this train.

fatharris Posted July 20, 2018 Author Share Posted July 20, 2018 In a true show of Britishness, in the final five minutes on the train, about half a dozen passengers (myself included) were discussing the correct jam/cream configuration on scones. #CreamOnTop Bristol achieved, onwards to Bath shortly.

fatharris Posted July 20, 2018 Author Share Posted July 20, 2018 So, jumped out and wandered down to the pick up point. Top shite waiting for me. Top shiter waiting for me! Got a lift back to Chats' place to admire the Saab 900 project, and sit down to a smashing full English. However, it's now time to get back on the road. Time for a new steed: We've also gained another person in this escapade! BACK TO BATH WE GO! Conrad D.
