  1. Sometimes used by repair shops to cover up a damaged/repaired roof?
  2. I had a new Fiat 850 on order when they first came out but it got held up by a strike at the factory (dealers excuse) so I cancelled the contract.
  3. You may not wish to check out the lyrics to The key to her Ferrari
  4. Off topic, but I used to work at a Heron filling station (would you like your windscreen cleaned and your oil checked). Gerald Ronson would turn up to inspect that everything was smartly painted and clean and to encourage us to sell more oil as that was more profitable than petrol. Ok you can carry on now
  5. Have you tried changing the fuel pump relay, it was the source of all the starvation problems on one of my 940s?
  6. S11 GGS shows as white Mercedes of 2008 vintage
  7. Also reading a newspaper! Why isn't she holding a parasol/sun-umbrella?
  8. Is that one window winder for down and another for back up, or maybe a fast wind and precision wind?
  9. wiper blades been nicked already or where they optional extras?
  10. I think they had to improve because it was biting them in the bum, a cabby in Malta told me he had just had new doors because of rust while the car was still under warranty.
  11. Theory: Larger cars survive because you can look posh without spending much money; small cars survive because they are loved by elderly ladies and students: medium cars just get scrapped when a big bill happens whereas the others get seen as worth spending the money on because you never know what is going to fail on a replacement. Discuss.
  12. I feel the need to say "go with the flow" 😊
  13. Simca 1000 or 1100? I did borrow an 1100 van to pic up a sideboard from the Isle of Wight
  14. Kango hammer and readymix? Or maybe try kittylitter first (as recommended by recovery truck driver when my Citroen XM was picked up.
  15. Did anyone have to ask how to open the back doors? Yes. 😁
  16. How often do they get that far and then realise that getting glass made to fit is a bigger challenge than all the bodywork effort?
  17. I think mobile cranes are exempt from MOT tests which may have been relevant back when it was on the road.
  18. I thought it was King Charles in the rear view mirror.
  19. Well they did make the nose look like other Saabs
  20. Despite owning three Saabs currently I was surprised to find out that the 9-7 existed. https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Saab_9-7X_--_03-19-2012.JPG#/media/File:Saab_9-7X_--_03-19-2012.JPG Not sure how to get the picture to work.
