@TheOtherStu.. "..they were the best ever.The Skoda was the one to have." 👍 = Rapid/130(trailing rear arms) 😎

Similar vein..... I got a 'scrap Talbot *Horizon1.0 engine' (an IMP engine, but upright FWD) and stripped it in my back yard. Took my 'spare IMP 875cc block' to the machine shop, with the rods and pistons out of the 1.0 block, and just said "bore to match, M8!" A set of Cord 'ridgedodgers' rings (cheapest option) fitted upside down + 1.0 Reinz gasket= vroom *533KNX tax record shows 930cc *EDIT... from a Sunbeam 'in your life' 👍

...... Aristonandonandonand 😎 🚙💨 .. 💨 .. 💨

This is a production vehicle, C&U Regs passed. Is it right you can MOT with no lights.... But it will be 'daylight only'? .... but I thought you MUST have cycle mudguards 🤔 🚙💨

Well, being as it's a lovely sunny day..... ..... we'll take trip up the 'Coastal Route' and have an Ice Cream, by the sea 😎 🚙💨

Is that a 'new' thing..... 🤣🤣

Ex P.O. Viva Van..... Steel ladder rack 😮 My [VDC846J] MM 1000 yellow P.O. had a WOODEN one ... 😎👍

🥳🥳👍.... 🙊🙉🙈 Up n Down, like a callgirls panties! 🚙💨

DW probbs.....

@PicantoJon... "Was getting bored of talking to myself... " Yes, now I can start again.....

Am Hole aginn.... 🧁🎄 🚙💨 ...... 🚴

Oil/ filter change done 😎👍 🚙💨

When I bought the car [@28k] I put new NGK plugs in..... Now we are @59k.... Should I give them a shuffties 🤔 🚙💨

^ ^ ^ ...... Must've been a lousy undercoat 🙄. Seen the state of the bridge paintwork just now 😱

This week's 'two scaffy poles in there, make you a good manure barrow!' award to... Garden next to Cresswell Ices. Long dead Savv, nice 'lip spoiler' tho 🤔 🚙💨

Oil change due .... I have about 2L on shelf so, economy minded me, I ordered 2L @£13... Pipercross were best price 😮.

I might imagine the Urals is a 'Skoda Estelle = can be wholly dismantled/nothing breaks off/thread strips..' kind of jobbie. Scaffy-pole 3rd wheel, for 60s vibe 🤔 Love the whole Urals aura [... NOT to be confused with Hog licking 👌] 🚙💨

^ ^ ^ ...... "Loved the 130 surprised a few festa owners and around bends was great fun" ALSO >>> tanking through standing water 😎. 🎱😍

Car..1 / Bike..0 I made my choice early in life (intending it be a long one.... ) 🚙💨

Do they still sell [*chinesium clone ?] Monkey Bikes 🤔 I've seen Utoobz of a buzz bike looks like a petrol Genny with a wheel each end...?? 🤣

Ahh..... Found this piccie of my 'brand new' 130LSE ( ... anklebiter now 47!) C360PTN* *No MOT record as it was arse-wipedout at just over two 😢 The Mini, behind, was a disability car.... 850 AUTO 😧

My Rapid [RR donk/FR rad] only cooked when standing in traffic/hot weather..... The leccy fan override (BIG orange glow switch!) on the dash cured it 110% 😎👍 Following all this with my usual mix of admiration & relief it ain't mine 🤣 🚙💨

@wesacosa... "Forums seem to suggest the quaeterlight dropping is a common issue as its only held in by the seals so will try and fabricate some support or use a wooden prop". Travelling along in my Rapid coop, I hear a loud 'crack' and the ns 1/4 shattered (no glass actually came away). No idea what did it. I stopped at a Skoda breakers (yupp.... Then a thing 🥳) and bought a new triangle.. guy let me take it out of a scrapper and charged me 50% dealer price. Glass = Glass ✔️ Unscrewed front edge windy window guide & slotted it in 😎. ahh..... them dayzz 👍😉

If, by chance, you share a coffee with a couple of middle eastern looking bods... after complimenting them on their excellent English... and you part with immortal [touring English traveller] words "Its been nice to meet you, see you sometime".... Don't be surprised if you do 🤣🤣
