New Year, new shiter

[quicksilver]

I've been lurking for a while and growing more fond of this place so my New Year's Resolution was to get an account and here I am. I don't currently have a car due to health issues but I hope I've established my shite credentials with previous wheels.

I passed my test in this 78 Fiesta, beigey bonus for extra shite points

Next came this fine specimen of BL orangeness

 

Then I had a Corsa inherited from my grandmother, not shite, just shit, so we'll say no more about that.

 

I start uni in a couple of weeks so hopefully there'll be plenty of shite to be seen around town!

 

EDIT: fixed the links, thanks DSdriver

Thought I did it right but the image links don't seem to work - little help please?

[DSdriver]

Hello and welcome

A couple of nice looking cars, I had to go into flickr to see them as the images did not happen on my screen. The beige fiesta was a winner, shame about what the next owner did to it.

I go into the actions menu/view all sizes, click the 640 and right click the image to get copy url.

Howdy. Your previous shite is certainly impressive stuff, if you'll pardon the expression.

I have difficulty on Flikr. You need to find the .jpeg code by right clicking or something. Might depend on your browser too. Get a photobucket account, its much easier.

 

EDIT Beaten too it. Welcome along. Nice colour Fiesta. Top shite points.

Welcome along, top previous shite owning skills!

[Skizzer]

Welcome! Quality motors in quality colour/spec combos.

 

You probably get some sort of bonus for fulfilling your New Year's resolution when it's still the old year - unless it's last year's resolution and you only had a day to go, which sounds more Autoshite to me.

Welcome aboard, and Happy New Year! Top shite cars, too. I passed my test in a Mk1 Fiesta just like that, except it was Peppermint Green. Mind you, this was in 1978... Anyone seen UYM 717S recently?

Hello and welcome, I like your old Dolomite!

[Pete-M]

Greetings. Grab a seat and don't piss in the plant pots.

Herzlich Wilkommen!

Welcome to the site. I've spotted a very similar Triumph not far from me in the same colour, I did snap a few pics of it so it will be joining my thread of spotted shite in the new year, keep your eyes peeled.

Welcome.

 

The Dolomite is lovely - same shade of orangey red (Vermillion) as my first car - a 1979 Mini.

 

The beige Fiesta is the epitome of autoshite.

Welcome mate - nIce pics. Great to have you along.

Going from the Dolomite to the Corsa must have been quite shit. Should you wish to make a similarly retrograde step, I happen to have a BMW 316 Compact for sale just now...
