Bolly Dolly - Now boringly reliable - snoooooooooze

[Guest Breadvan72]

This is just to say that my alarm clock is set for 0630 tomorrow, but I ain't going to work.   More in the morning....

 

 

[eddyramrod]

0630, you bloody part-timer....

[Guest Breadvan72]

If it was work, I'd be up at 0545.  Commuting sucks monkey balls.

[Twiggy]

Can`t wait........

[eddyramrod]

0545, you... well you know the rest

[barefoot]

If it was work, I'd be up at 0545.  Commuting sucks monkey balls.

 

Don't call me Monkey Balls. (You promised to keep it our little secret).

[skattrd]

Are you still in Cornwall Mr_BV?

[D Spares & Tyres]

I only pressed like cos I never get out of bed before 8.00. sod that

[Junkman]

Getting up before the sun is over the yard beam is inhuman.

[Noel Tidybeard]

shirley this isnt going to end well

[Guest Breadvan72]

Up betimes, and by mildly shagged out Alfa to ye rural railway station for Chiltern chuffer to Banbury.

 

Now on Cross Country Southampton to Manchester, calling at various places of the kind where blokes keep cars in sheds.

 

Customary departure station shot, and deluxe Chiltern Line upholstery (probably better than anything I may be sitting on later).

 

Breakfast photograph PHAIL due to rushing for train. 

 

More to follow...

Are you still in Cornwall Mr_BV?

 

 

Negativo.  I drove back yesterday in my wife's reliable but slightly dull Pug 206 CC  (she made me keep the top up), after a few days chillin' at St Ives  (Porthminster Beach Cafe nom noms).  Cornwall appears to be Land O' Shite, BTW.

[Guest Breadvan72]

Cross Country Luxo-scoff, breakfast of winnaz idiots.

 

[Jim Bell]

Gad speed.

[Mr Lobster]

I can almost taste the flavourlessness disappointment offered by that croissant from here.

[oldcars]

Did the breakfast cost more than the motor your going to collect?

[Coprolalia]

 Cornwall appears to be Land O' Shite, BTW.

 

It's a motoring world Brigadoon. Cars are driven into Cornwall, only to re-emerge 30 years later with no sills.

[Guest Breadvan72]

The croissant was every bit as cardboard as the inner wings of the destination vehicle. Now in a cab from Stafford to a village somewhere...

[Taff]

pre-emptive strike

 

you are collecting a Maxi 1750 HLS in Inca yellow, needing a wheel bearing and a an exhaust backbox

[Guest Breadvan72]

Oooooh, you are close.  Check this out...

 

 

And, yes, electronical folding money has changed hands.  Petrol station pop shot to follow.

Dolly sprint in yellow.

 

 

ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo get her.

[alf892]

Have you picked up a dolly on your travels?

 

Will Mrs BV understand?

[Mr_Bo11ox]

Dolomite sprint

[Guest Breadvan72]

More clues...

 

 

[Guest Breadvan72]

Clues posted too late -Totes busted!

 

Mrs BV likes it.  Even more amazingly, it works (100 miles, mostly motorway, no snags, now home).

 

The seller was a fine bloke, and the car seems pretty straight.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

[derskine]

Yeah!

[captain_70s]

Tidy!

 

Yours seems to lack the rust and poor quality respray that my yellow Dolomite has but I suppose you can't have everything...

[eddyramrod]

Mrs BV likes it. 

I bet she doesn't let you open the sunroof though!

 

Nice work, far more worth being up at stupid o'clock than the reason I have to.

Winner winner chicken dinner

[Mr_Bo11ox]

A yellow dolly sprint is Mrs Crabs favorite old car, she was on about buying one (maybe not a sprint though). Can I bring her round and have her taken for a spin in it? She even lives in Oxford.
