NorfolkNWeigh Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 I'm convinced this is some elaborate grooming exercise by aliens to capture the minds of Autoshiters.Or maybe a big dealer group is trying to lure non-conformists into a situation where they'll be brainwashed into trading shite for new shit.All seems too good to be true to me.

vulgalour Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 Best thing about visiting York from Scotland is it's all downhill so you save fuel. Â That's how physics works right? rml2345 and brickwall 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

petr Posted December 20, 2013 Share Posted December 20, 2013 Hi Benjyp  If you do have an open day I would love to come and look at your cars. I have just had the clutch done on my Samba and a few other bits done on the engine as it had a few oil leaks. Only in Beverley so not faraway. My Samba was the one you nearly had a look at!

minolman Posted December 20, 2013 Share Posted December 20, 2013 Really Excellent Yugo van score! Can't wait to see it. I'm glad that the signs came along too, will be great to see them. Have messaged you about the green you know what *wink wink* I'm really looking forward to getting the gearbox fixed on Hugo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghosty Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 I think the whole of Autoshite would lose faith in you if you put post-2001 font plates on that Yugo.Do the right thing and buy pre-2001 Banger Kenny and 500tops 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
