some old stuff I’ve seen over the last year or so in Gibraltar.

In other news I bought this recently, not my ideal choice of motor but second hand cars are somewhat limited here in Gibraltar and this has been well kept. Very little choice of nice 15-20 year old stuff here. It’s mostly death traps that haven’t been MOT’d since last millennium or nearly new Mercs and Range Rovers for eleventy million pounds, only for it to be scraped and dented before you get the thing a mile up the road. So this tank was acquired, starting to quite like it and very practical for going shopping over in Spain (when our Spanish neighbours let us through the border)

After 3 years sat in the garage and only covering about 5 miles to the MOT station and back last year, my 75 has set sail, quite literally and has gone to some fanatical 75 collector in Belgium. I now live in Gibraltar so getting the car over here was going to be costly and a bit of a faff to say the least. It served me well for 8 years but deserved better in the end so some chap from Belgium contacted me and offered a healthy sum to acquire it.

Not really a welcome as I have been a member since the early AS days but haven’t been on here for a long time. Now living in Gibraltar and driving an early Mercedes ML My Rover 75 unfortunately couldn’t come with me so it sat in a garage unused in the UK for a couple of years and now has gone to its new owner in Belgium.
