Borsuq got a reaction from Lord Sterling in Borsuq's Fs (FSO Polonez Caro and Fiat 126p)
I hope I've not posted this before, but gotta love the clock on the Polonez. FSO made damn sure the car was just like a Roller and the clock was the loudest thing inside the car.

I'd like to officially announce that spring has sprung. The FSO is out of storage as of yesterday.
And it's just as horrible as I remembered it. ❤️
One of my images seems to get flipped on upload. Odd.

Not posted here in a few months, but not much has changed. Both the FSO and the Fiat are still with me and are doing fine. The Fiat saw a little paint to take care of a minor rust spot the other week:
Have also taken this opportunity to revert the door sills to the original black rather than body colour.
Glad I managed to get in a proper drive in the FSO before I'm off on vacation late next week. Took some photos too.
