The Vicar Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 Our baker here in Rome showed up in this yesterday. He has it from new and uses it for his local deliveries. Spend an enjoyable five minutes chatting away with him; he has an old Giulia in the garage at home too. adw1977, catsinthewelder, Dyslexic Viking and 9 others 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MisterH Posted February 18, 2022 Share Posted February 18, 2022 Well over the last couple of weeks I have been commuting to Havant and back on the M27 in my Audi 80 Sport. On my travels I have seen several interesting pieces of Shite. First I saw a Fiat Tipo 5 door on the M27 Next I saw a Nissan Sunny Hatch, J reg Then it was an H Reg Mk1 Espace, maroon But to top it all off, coming home on the A272, I saw going the other way (as were all the others) a Mk1 Subaru Impreza bASe, with That grille: AnnoyingPentium, davocano, Rust Collector and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any... practical reason why they used Ford? Also, any verdict on the actual camper unit? A Cortina doesn't seem like the best vehicle to convert.

500tops Posted February 19, 2022 Share Posted February 19, 2022 What's the oldest Royal Mail van in your area? There's at least one 58 plate Corsa van I see on a regular basis. Plenty of 59 plates around. Quintus, AnnoyingPentium and Dyslexic Viking 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
