Want. Did they ever come in auto flavour? Dad had a d plated 1.5 sgl and remember being amazed how the roof didn't cave in when doors where opened

That should have Tinder girl foaming at the foof.

Isn't that Wills, the one that he reduced the price on because it jumps out of some gears?

 

Or am I imagining the that?

Huh. I must have imagined it - I swear there was a car that looked like that with a gen-u-win 24" long gear stick.

 

Still, that thing is awesomeness.

I clicked on here to see more pics of your lovely girlfriend, I am extremely disappointed !!!!!!!    Nice car to be fair.

That looks the business. I can only imagine that WIFE_CMS would debollock me for even considering one, so I'm going to make an extra effort this month to impregnate her just to have an excuse to buy a caravan green and beige Japanese people carrier with less than the accepted number of pillars.

That's smart, no pillar is cool. Would have been handy at the weekend when i had to safely* transport my old sofa in the Shuma.

If ever the government allows me to setup roadside suicide booths, I'm going to make then look just like that.

Totally comfortable yet utterly depressing.

Yes, that's the one. I think the gear linkage may be at fault, will investigate or just hold it in 5th when needed.

Ooof!  I love the two tone look, and those seats look fabulous.  Would.

 

Bringing it to Shitefest?

I think it would make an awesome camping car, so why not?!

Ace, I can remember my folks going to look at a new one in about '80. It was completely different to anything available. We ended up with a Cherry coupe, not bad, but not as good as a Prairie. Well bought.

You have just won Autoshite. First dibs please :)

Nice. Love the brown interior. The whole car looks really tidy too for the age of it.

Posted

Oh come on. The chances of him still owning it by Shitefest? ;)

 

I went on Retro Rides for the first time in ages and spotted this for sale. Not quick enough to beat the Panda though! Which is fortunate, as Mrs DW would have killed me several times.

There is another one of these in Hadleigh, just off the A13 behind Aldi's, do a left down Castle Road and there is a D reg parked up down there somewhere 

 

(Or at least there was when I last passed through there recently)

 

There is also a green Hightop Prairie in Leigh near Bonchurch Park.

Honda Shuttle perhaps?
