Found my photo of the Coupehatch, it looked rougher than Trigger after a few sherberts
 

Thread bump. Also whilst in Yorkshire I met up with a mate who has a small fleet, plus visited Dewsbury Bus Museum. I got to play with my mate's Leyland Leopard, which is a real beast. Goes like stink, and it's even had its fuel pump cut back. It has a 680 power plus lump in. Also drove his Mrs' Iveco Daily Robin Hood Loaf tin  The green Mk2 National used to be in my care, and is XUA73X, which is now almost completely restored, just a few bits of electrics and trim to sort. More photos to come once I get time to edit them. 
 








 
 
 
 

Time to resurrect this thread, this 1929 Dennis is still in use by its current owner Buckland's Coaches of Woodbridge in Suffolk, saw it the other week on a wedding, and yesterday it was being used on tours of Felixstowe
 

 
 

an Oh 'Chryst'ler 180 hearse. The misery...
 

I did see a pretty minty looking gold Stellar at Stanford Hall last summer
 

Converted Sherpa in use as an open top tour bus in Norwich, pure grade one shite
 

Nice that the old beast is getting some love at last

Lada decided to Barry up the top of the tree 1300 SLX Samara at launch, a school friend's grandad had one bought new in burgundy, replaced with a gold 1500SLX 5 door with the same dreadful bodykit, this time in gold. FML
 

The replica that the clows poured paint on lives in Suffolkj, and the owner is a member of East Coast Retros, he was utterly stunned when the 2 egomaniac wasters did that to his car, they show an unheard of level of contempt for their fans, if I was the owner, both of em would have been punched to the floor.

Volvo Olys with the ZF 5 speed made Cummins L10 examples seem slow. Cruising up the A12 at midnight from Shenfield back to Colchester a few years back, I was cruising at silly speeds, the Mrs was following in a bus from the same batch and she couldn't keep up with me as her bus ran out of steam at 75. Those L reg ex Halifax buses were beasts

You'd be lucky to get 50 out of a VRT, not exactly known for speed, most service buses had the 'short diff' which maxes out at 43-45. That Tiger can legally do 70, and will easily do more, I've had 90 out of an Olympian with a TL11 245 in, and it was a hair raising experience, as the front end got very floaty

Wazzocks, they'd have cleaner air if they didn't keep setting fire to old tyres on freshly laid tarmac

Bedford CF 1.8 petrol
0-60 You have got to be joking
 
Annie's Soft Scoop Est'd 1905-2001?
 
Specialist- Screwball Special (fnarr)
 

 
Annie's van was a well known spot at Bridlington-On-Sea, a run down shitehole on the north east coast. She was often seen trying to sell her wares to shivering punters, who were looking for shelter from the biting wind and torrential rain. The van had a strong smell of fish, and there were rumours that she was selling her self to the local fisherman. Nobody knows what happened to Annie, there were tales that she was killed when she tried to intervene when a fight broke out between 2 fishermen who were vying for Annie's Screwball Special. Her van to this day still hasn't been found

With all the weight over the arse end, wheelies weren't uncommon with these old Commers, coming to a full stop however....

Skeletons wanking in a biscuit tin time, the brown Solara LS is a replica of my uncle Rob's, bought brand new, and disposed of after just a year, replaced with a brand new Cherry 5 door. the red Horizon is a replica of my uncle Alan's old motor, also bought new, that was run in to the ground, and replaced with a Micra. My family were shiters LOL
 

 

 

 

 

Pineapple free, crude Jetcar Norev big bumper GIT, twelve quid, and feck me sideways, unboxed Ailsa in mint nick that cos me a fiver, both from a model shop in Stowmarket

I think the sellers of the V5s etc need arresting and charging, and ebay also dragged in to the chain of prosecuting for aiding and abetting. Quite a few Lannies and Minis have been seized in Septicland where they have found to be fraudulent, and instead of returning them to the UK, they crush them. I think as part of the process, they should chuck the scum involved in the crusher at the same time. Sadly I was involved with someone ringing hooky cars when I was a teen, I was a valeter for a 'home seller' of used motors, and was paid very well, quite a few Cossies went through him, including a few cut n shuts, he taught me to drive aged 13 in some pretty tasty motors. H did end up doing time when his gaff was raided not long after he kicked his wife out.

These twats selling ringing kits deserve setting fire to, they piss me off no end

Well, Hattons have come to the rescue, they had a used Nordic Blue Vanguards Fiesta L in, which goes for mental money on egay for just £14 plus post, which was £2.75 shipping, As Uncle George Takei, everyone's fave gay uncle would say..... 'Oh my'. 

I am sadly finding this site harder and harder to use, forcing the site to try and open the change themes option brings up the forum page again with me logged out, the settings function is in block capitals, highlighted and doesn't work, same goes when trying to search for my topics, it is so thoroughly broken now, Even when changing font sizes, it simply reverts back to the same small font, I could get the mods shafted under disability legislation, but that would bring an end to the forum, and land the mods with a fine. Sadly my disability has made the forum near impossible to use, and when I point out glaring faults, I get shouted down by some windowlicking mate of the mods with a very low post count. I can see why Junkman left, he has a very valid point, BV had the balls to stand up to the mods too, and he got forced off and banned, he too had very valid concerns. I will post on other social media, but not on here
