A drive from London to Bath in 1963 by an AIM Instructor
"He's giving me the V-sign. I can't think why he thinks I am interested in his politics."
I posted that one a few months back.
This is priceless. Listen as the he overtakes the Rapier. -

Last night I went to my 19 year old son's Police Attestation ceremony. Couldn't have been prouder and he looked very smart in his dress uniform.
Made a nice change to escape the usual crap I have to put up with.

Fuck right off.

This will help when it comes to finding compatible wheels.

I use Vanish carpet cleaner from the pound shop, diluted for everyday grime or out the bottle for stubborn older stuff including bad water stains. I put it on with a washing op brush or stiff nailbrush. It's pretty shit hot! it's took paint, nail varnish and oil out of a carpet.
^^^ What he said. Great stuff given the price.

Took all my lessons in a Mini 850 and Austin 1100, due to change of car by my instructor, I ended up taking my test in a brand spanking new Cavalier 1600 Mk1. Passed first time despite only having driven the car once before and that was to the test centre in St Albans!
Did my bike test on my then new Yamaha RD250E. Passed both tests in April 1978.

I have in my hand a piece of Green...
I once had an old Astra Mk1 with an interior in a very similar colour to that!

I need a brochure myself actually . . think i will look on Ebay in a bit!
There seems to be quite a few for sale! I'd completely forgotten about the 125p ESTATE!
125p? Was that how much it cost?
Seriously though, I'm following this with much interest as I have a brother who almost bought a new one of these.

Some of those road names can also be found in Jaywick. When I was a nipper I stayed at 21 Singer Avenue!

I had this happen on my old Xantia after being left for a while. Local mechanic told me never to put the jump lead directly to the car's - battery terminal but attach it to a handily placed earth point. Use the battery + terminal as you usually would.
Anyway, problem solved by a few flicks of the ignition switch (not starting the car though!)

Freebie - Renault Workshop Manuals on CD
in AutoShite
Posted
Okay, been given this CD by a mate but no longer any use to me as I don't do Renaults any more. All workshop manuals are pdf format in French and some have over 1000 pages! First come first served as I only have the one disc.
Contact me via PM with address to which you'd like it to be sent to.
