Wasn't @BorniteIdentity, banging on about one in the ebaytat thread a few weeks ago?

Yes, but the one I saw was a mk5a - this is a 6.

Loves me a blurple car. This actually looks alright, and what I reckon we ought to all be perving over on AS.

Great work, FOAD!

It probably won't be for sale for a while, just booked my CBT and hoping to get it roadworthy and into use.

Subaru passed its MOT yesterday too after sitting unused for a few months.
I'm now going to take a trip to Newcastle to collect Mercedes w123 parts.6cb18d6628daae8845b9d0e0f16a82af.jpg

I bought this today, it isn't actually that rusty, couple of crusty bits on the sills and arches but underneath is just surface rust.

A Hungarian guy I know has owned it for the last few years as well as a bunch of Lada's, he's been pressuring me into buying it for months so I finally just gave in and bought it.

Well, I think I speak for us all here.

You did the right thing!

PandaBoSelecta. That's a name I've not seen in ages. I used to love RR for years before I realised this place better suits my style*. 

What's the replacement engine for the Fiat? I assume 124s are now in single figures - great find!

top chod sir, i thought you were a fifer but that accent sounds more glasgow
I've lived in Fife for the majority of my life but was born in bellshill and lived in East Kilbride for a few years until I moved here.
My accent is a mixture of both but more fife than weegie.

The Castrol tin sill and British Leyland mudflaps are a nice touch. Well bought.

We did our CBT's earlier so will be out terrorising the neighbourhood in a haze of blue smoke soon enough...

That KMX is the absolute bollocks.

It is pretty cool but I did have to sacrifice my yz250 for it which was a much better spec and much faster.
I think I made the right decision, as much as I enjoyed thrashing it around quarries it was getting a little bit boring going to the same places.

Picked up another old 2 stroke, an Aprilia etx 125. I knew Aprilia's had a reputation for being quick but this one is really slow compared with the kmx. It has a restricted CDI unit and doesn't seem to have a power valve on the cylinder head. I was quite disappointed with it thinking it would be faster I would palm off the kmx to the Mrs and keep the Aprilia... Maybe when I manage to make it quicker I will have it...

We had some rappers down shooting some scenes. Nothing says "money" like a Chevette with mismatched panels and broken headlights...47674e82a3b92b821aaeb8b1d2fea8ed.jpg
