chaseracer Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 Those lights are later P6. Have a gratuitous G-K bumshot, just because. Rave 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John F Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 Definitely Rover P6, late-1960s era onwards. And this should give you an idea of the value: http://shop.roverp6cars.com/REAR-LIGHT-ASSEMBLY-COMPLETE-NOS chaseracer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nigel bickle Posted March 10, 2017 Author Share Posted March 10, 2017 Hey Guys, I'm welling up. Thank you so very much for all those lovely comments. Its hard, really tough dealing with this- sometimes he's near normal, sometimes very much not. I don't think its my place to tell you his 'issues', but they do seem to be coming at him from several angles. There's only so much fighting a body can take, Right now he's pretty good -and returned to the UK this week for a few days. It will be good to have him 'home' - albeit briefly The stuff he's got just defies belief -and most of it seems to be beyond obscure. He did tell me to ask here when I got lost - that the advice would be honest & truthful, & you've been really helpful. I've undersold those bloody Rover lights- but I'll learn. Anyway thanks. Your comments gladden the heart. uk_senator, Negative Creep, Skizzer and 8 others 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For Fiats Sake Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 Sorry to hear about Mr Bickles issues. May I suggest that if you are putting bits and pieces up for sale perhaps you could put links on this thread? I'm sure a lot of the members here would be interested. All the best to the Bickle clan. nigel bickle, Magnificent Rustbucket, eddyramrod and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mat_the_cat Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 Best wishes to Nigel from me also. I've never met him, although he's one of the posters on here I would like to meet (and as a fellow Stellar owner, clearly has good taste!)

Craig the Princess Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 I echo the sending of best wishes to Nigel, sad to hear of the problems. I'm sure anyone on here will do anything they can to help. Magnificent Rustbucket, HMC and eddyramrod 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghosty Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 Are you ok with me using his account here, or prefer I re register? I'm only likely in occasionally, probably to ask for help with identification etc It's fine, you're only making plans for Nigel. Is he going to keep buying weird cars from the continent, or does he have a future in British steel? barefoot and chaseracer 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pillock Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 I'm sure you could post up pictures of entirely​ random bits of obscure car and get an ID if it helps you spend less time puzzling over parts and more time as a family. Any way we can help, just ask. chaseracer and eddyramrod 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
egg Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 I only recently sent Nigel some bits for his Favorit. Best wishes to him. eddyramrod 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mat_the_cat Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 I'm sure you could post up pictures of entirely​ random bits of obscure car and get an ID Even if we can't ID it, we always like looking at pictures of entirely​ random bits of obscure car!

chaseracer Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 It's fine, you're only making plans for Nigel.

pompei Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 I'm so sorry to hear that Nigel isn't well - like other posters, I have never met him but feel, through these pages, that he is a friend. chaseracer, 3VOM, stripped fred and 5 others 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uk_senator Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 I`ve never spoken to Nigel either, but I`ve always loved his taste in shite, especially the Ay-tai stuff (think I sold him some bits on ebay once). Wishing him & all of you all the best. Craig the Princess 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HMC Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 Mr Bickle is deffo the shite godfather, and is source of inspiration to me from my time on the forum. I just wish my taste in cars was as specialist and wide ranging as his. Hope he's feeling better soon! Craig the Princess and Skizzer 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skizzer Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 I had the privilege of meeting the legendary Nigel and being shown a little of his collection a few years ago (when I helped Scooters collect a Yugo 45 from him, my introduction to AS), and I'm very sad indeed to hear he's not well. Please add my very best wishes too. There's a lot of love and respect for him on here. eddyramrod and Magnificent Rustbucket 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nigel bickle Posted March 11, 2017 Author Share Posted March 11, 2017 Thank you. I hadn't realised. It's nice to know he's liked here. I've thought about it and decided to register as 'Son of Bickle' (- if I can get through the process, nothing seems to be happening!) as he may prefer to use his own sign in, if/ when able. I don't want to nick it. I've little doubt I'll be asking a lot of questions though....as soon as I'm in!

seth Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 I'm another to add to the list of people wishing him well. Have enjoyed his company on a couple of accasions, notably Beualieu I seem to recall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlsoMike Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 I only met Nigel a couple of weeks ago (to add to his tat collection by selling him some wheels), seems like a top bloke, sorry to hear he's not well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Formula Autos Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 Best wishes to Nigel. Lurked on here for a while before realising that Nigel was that bloke who was on C4 in the late '90s selling a Minor Traveller, and also owned barns full of chod. That brief glimpse gave me a hero to worship even before AS came along. Hope thing turn out well for you Nigel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lovejoy Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 A bit late in the day, but only just heard about this thread, met up with Nigelon various occasions, en-route to and from Gatwick...a great place to stop off (...if you can find it!!!....)and a fellow Renault 12 enthusiast - I have had 15 Estates, more than him I think?but his collection, and his enthusiasm, is awsome. Best wishes to Nigel, from "mad as a box of frogs" Lovejoy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
