Another long time lurker here from Scotland. Down in the Borders here.

Great forum and has given me plenty of laughs so far.

Currently running a PD130 Bora as my daily shitter, which is 99% dead, so searching for a new shitter to replace it ASAP.

Welcome. PD130 Bora sounds quite nice, even if it's fecked. :)

I had a pd130 bora on 260000 miles which was brilliant and I regret selling it. Best car I had had for a long time.

Welcome Nibbler, old friend! I do think your Aygo is a Toyota… 😉

Thank you! Yeah, I recognised that mistake, but I can’t edit it. A quick fix would be to just slam a Toyota badge on it.

I did it again. Of course I mean a Honda badge.

Hi there, I've been reading threads on here for over a year now, so I guess it's time to introduce myself.

I'm from Germany, very much interested in japanese and french shite from the 90s and currently (since last saturday) on my third Mitsubishi Carisma. I'm thinking about making a thread for this one when I have good pictures.

Hi, I think I've lurked long enough so time to break cover. I bought a Peugeot 309 from a lovely chap from this here parish last summer as it needed moving and i dont like to see cars with plenty of life left scrapped due to been undesirable or needing a bit of tlc . Obviously having a few too many cars and needing an 8 day week i haven't done much with it as yet. Ive also recently acquired my brothers old car, a 03 plate Mitsubishi carisma diesel which he gave me for nothing rather than it be scrapped. I cant help myself,  i just cant say no, but nobody's perfect!

Your company sign writing is spot on as I remember passing one of your vans in the last two days somewhere between Bristol and Aberdeen. I passed a few* vehicles and for me to remember one van is remarkable.

If it was a Wicked Van Hire Luton between Church Stretton and Bristol on Saturday it was probably me driving.

And you didn't wave :-( 

I was in the Hyundai with an empty trailer so not very remarkable so you have an excuse I suppose! :-)
