Thanks for the welcome :) Yes it is the special, though had the front seats redone as the leather was knackered, heated too so upgraded!  (And part flocked dash, MX5 steering wheel, remote central locking, total closure window system and an Alpine "digital" Commander stereo system, it's not digital, just a special headunit with all amp/receiver with CD changer in boot)

wow that is amazing! I love it! Love the Emerald green with the tan leather. i remember being 11 years old sat in the mazda show room - they had one of these in £18695 i think it was brand new Perrys Mazda,  We had a lowly LXi at the time but eventually got myself an intrigue special edition in atlantis blue.

Hello, 

Long term lurker of this site and lover of automotive shiteness. This has been displayed several times over the years with a few drunken eBay purchases which has ended up with past ownership of some fine cars like an Audi 80 B3, a Nissan Bluebird, a Renault 11 and so on. All had their inevitable perfect imperfections and eventually they get moved on followed by regret.

Recent victim was an odd Nissan Largo (import) which was absolutely dreadful in every way, bought to get my partner’s childminding venture up and running which has come to a premature halt due to Covid, midway through 11 weeks worth of furlough I wanted it and it’s many leaking fluids off the driveway and off it went to a scrap merchant who then tried his luck putting it on eBay for silly money.

Further through furlough insanity I’ve seeked some retail therapy and hoped to find a nice Jag XJ X300/308 which would solve the family need to have two cars again once the boy is back in school, but due to the convenience of my sister in law offering us her Fiat Grande Punto very cheap I’m ending up with that as a work horse for now (bloody Punto instead of a Jag, I’m still sulking a bit).

Anyway sorry for the long intro, I’ll now continue browsing here most days in jealousy of all the shite you all have. ?

Hello, I'm*sort of* new here, in the fact that I joined up a few years ago, hardly ever posted and subsequently forgot all my login details.

 

Anyway, I'm Matt, and have a thing for BL cars, and here is the fleet. A 1979 Allegro 1100DL, the 'not a proper TR' 1977 TR7 and 1972 Rover 2000TC.
