CortinaDave Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 these are the business. Paricularly the travelling queer. Had an identical one as my first car back in 1997, although it was a rotbox even then!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bren Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 The cavalier is fantastic - even more shite points for having a carb and an auto box - most of the survivors seem to be convertible/CDi/SRi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Lobster Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 Awesome car collection you have there. I should imagine you have recently caused numerous Autoshiters to draw maps of Africa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boobydoo Posted October 16, 2013 Share Posted October 16, 2013 I've removed the centre caps as they are not replaceable and keep them for special occasions!! Aye. I remember nicking a set from an Alpine on a used car forecourt years ago. Undercover of darkness wearing a borrowed balaclava.

406V6 Posted October 16, 2013 Share Posted October 16, 2013 That's a tremendous collection. I was going to say that all you need is a Tagora to win the Autoshite Grand Slam but you've got a Solara so you must be on the shortlist for winning at least the silver medal. More pics please.

saucedoctor Posted October 16, 2013 Share Posted October 16, 2013 do Sambas have the same gearbox in the sump arrangement as my old 305 mk1? Aye. A collaboration with Renault on the design. I had 3 Sambas. The gearchange wasn't all that bad. EDITED to add: I can't remember about the 1360cc one, it was a 5 speed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
