eddyramrod Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 See, I knew that would happen (is there an emoticon for smug?). We had a spambot, Keef, it flooded us with new threads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eddyramrod Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 Kind of looks like that, doesn't it? Fred and Simmo were kind enough to bump up a load of proper threads to keep us alive, so round of applause to those two I think! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eddyramrod Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 Good enough until a Mod turns up to clear the crap away. If you were drowning, would you reject the tyre thrown for you to cling onto because it was a Sava not a Goodrich? Didn't think so. That's why we drive shite cars, because they're good enough. Mostly. And sorry if the tone of that looks a bit harsh, I didn't mean it to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

worldofceri Posted August 16, 2010 Share Posted August 16, 2010 I would absolutely love to have a trundle round in that AEC! And that Fiat - must be one of the latest on an R plate. Has an air of home brew conversion about it... or is it just a dodgy respray? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keef Posted August 16, 2010 Share Posted August 16, 2010 I would absolutely love to have a trundle round in that AEC! Me too. Probably totally impracticable, but what the hell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Lobster Posted August 16, 2010 Share Posted August 16, 2010 I think the Fiorino pick up was badged as a Strada abroad? Sure I've seen newish Strada badged Fiat pickups. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vin Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 The Strada pick up is based on the Fiat Palio. It was the replacement for the Fiorino pick-up on mainland Europe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

barrett Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 Superb stuff as usual, is the old Seddon still working for a living? Also, proper qual wing 'repair' on the Lagonda... I assume it's a parts car for a running one? Wasn't one of the guv'nors looking for one of these for a mate a while back? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasn't one of the guv'nors looking for one of these for a mate a while back?Lagonda was bought for its wheels as the previous owner would not split allthough they had kept the engine and box. There were 2 Lagondas but 1 has been cut up and weighed in. Seddon is used nearly every day and he's not afraid to use it for long trips either.

mattblack Posted August 18, 2010 Share Posted August 18, 2010 I've seen that Seddon at a couple of Abbey Pumping Station events, nice to see it gets out 'n' about. I saw that Fiat pick-up tonight on the way home from work, there was a white one knocking around Leicester a couple of years ago, I think it lived just off Braunstone Lane, saw it parked up a few times. Funnily enough they're the only 2 I can ever remember seeing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
