Welcome. Viva estate pics?

Viva pics scanned. Bonus glimpse of the roof of the Black Skoda Rapide and White Cavalier estate.

Looking frosty when the Head gasket went 

And if you look at the interior the rev counter was fitted in the air vent and the air vent repositioned just below.

Shame as a move made me get rid of 3 cars I'd quite happily own now.

I learnt to drive in a HC. I was never a lover of the styling when new. Those estates certainly (IMHO) are more desirable then the  saloon.

Hello all,

I've been lurking here for years and think it’s time I contributed. As a serial Ford owner, with an increasing amount of cars from other makes in recent years I plan to start a thread consisting of my past and current fleet. I've started to gather photos from old hard drives and cupboards. Hoping someone will find it interesting!

Thanks for letting me join, I have as many have said before me been lurking around for years! I own a 1974 N reg Vanden Plas 1300, and a couple of boring modern cars. I have owned an amazing selection of shite over the years and used to be an avid reader of Jalopy magazine (anyone remember it?) I live in West Wales

Welcome to the site! A posh 1300 does sound pretty bloody cool if you ask me. Any chance of some photos of it? :)

Croeso!!

Can it tow an Invacar out of a field in Pembrokeshire though 🤔

Posted

Yes of course, would depend on how long said Invacar had been in field, how deep it had sunk and how many stingies were in the way!

Posted

I think you'll probably know who you would need to chat with if you happen to be down that way... many hands make light work etc etc

Long time lurker, joining up. Fantastic forum, love the content and threads. I don't own any shite I am afraid but am on here daily browsing. it's so good to find a forum that's not all about the new and shiny.

I get the feeling that by the very nature of the forum that there will be 1 or 2 Scot's about...

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. 

Posted

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

Posted

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.
