WOW! Le Montego c'est formidable! (Is "Montego" masculine or feminine in La Belle France, I wonder?). Even down to the chrome strip above the grille. Where did they all go? Scrapyards, of course.Ford (Aus) Capri - what a shitebox, and you have to wonder why they just didn't rebody the MX-5 instead to fill the niche. Amazing to think that Ford had both (given how they own 25% of Mazda) on the drawing board at the same time, and still went ahead with both of them. Luckily Mazda themselves were canny enough, at the early prototype stage, to see that an FWD 323 in a party frock just wouldn't cut it.

Just lost out on this:

by a fiver. Probably a good thing as I have three Mazdas already, but I never even knew they made one. I've never seen one before in my life. Were they officially sold here, or are they a grey import, or what?

Some Arrows Hunter shite:

The embodiment of shite in its purest form! http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? ... %26fvi%3D1

This is very similar to one my Uncle owned (save for the auto box & wheels). Anyone else remember a very young Martin Clunes appearing in a late-model Hunter estate in an episode of The Sweeney?

Old skool furry pimping! I love how every conceivable bit of tat right down to a stick on pen has found its way into the interior in that last pic :)http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/HILLMAN-HUNTER-GL ... dZViewItem

This has to be shite. It's relatively new, but not only is it a Daihatsu Charade, it's a 4-door saloon!!! These must make the Applause look as common as a Fiesta.

Slightly dull fact: The 4 door Charades were known as the "Charade Social" in Japan.

 

Very dull fact: That Charade has SG Petch stickers, that's where my Avanzato came from when it was new. They seem to do a lot of odd stuff.

That's a 'Valeria' over here, been looking at them as a replacement for the Starlet, but I'd rather have an Applause... :D

saw this on ebay item number 150158639154 try this now would of pasted the link but dont no how to :cry::cry:

When you're viewing the page you want to link to, click on the address so that it turns blue. If it doesn't then left click the mouse at the end of the address then holding the left click, drag the mouse the whole length to turn it blue (highlighting) then right click on the address with the mouse & select copy. Alternatively press and hold Ctrl on the keyboard then whilst you're pressing it, then press C. Then in your autoshite message click the URL button and next to it right click the mouse & select paste. Alternatively hold the Ctrl button again then with it still pressed press V. Then at the end of the writing either press the URL button again or press Close Tags.Voila!

Also if you hover your mouse over each of the function buttons at top of the autoshite message form it shows you how to use them. Anything NOT enclosed by brackets is the bit where you put your message or link. You still have the write the bits in brackets but they don't show up in your message once you've posted it, as they are the functions in bb code.

 

e.g. to write that 'NOT' in bold type I had to do [/b]NOT*

 

 

*To get it to work if I wanted to do it for real the one with the slash would have to be the second one not the first because / signifies you have finalised the code. I had to put them the wrong way around or they wouldn't have been visible for me to show you as the code would have activated!

 

Hope this helps.

Insurants [sic] quotation generator spits out a premium of £150 a year. That's a nice figure. Bid placed, but it ain't enough. Praying on a nice classic escort this week, but sods law it will probably sail up to $8.5bn in the last seconds. Not even a two-door. Grr!

Cheers for the startoff. I pay £80/yr with Lancaster, coupla years older than yerself though, and might be in a slightly better postcode (plus it's garaged)? Either way, it's still cheap motoring...apart from the RFL and fuel consumption, of course :roll: Just punted it on to see interest, set the reserve @ £600 which is about a ton less than it stands me in. If it doesn't go I'll MOT it, can't see any reason why it shouldn't fly through.
