Ooh, harsh. West Mids were master lockmakers, massive choice of engineers in Cov

As a student of Coventry Lanchester Polytechnic, in the 80s, I can attest to the fact that the engineers from Coventry, were exceptional in the level of mediocrity that they displayed.

Me too!  When I joined to do my HND it was Cov Poly but by the time I left it was Coventry University

My parents graduated from there in 1982. If you were around Lanchester Poly at that end of the decade you may have encountered by dad drinking one of the local pubs dry

going over the block next week at Mathewsons, this metro vanden plas  GS isvery very clean, save the o/f back door which is starting to go and a couple of carpark dings, 33000 miles which i would think is genuine, given that the floor is spotless.

I've just looked at the price of that Metro van.  Fuck me, HFM?  I got a fraction of that for my perfect, unrestored, genuinely as-new Cyprus example!  Have things changed that much in eight years?

at last, the metro having been a but of many jokes and general appathy has it seems finally starting to become a proper classic car.

no doubt the silly values placed on early Festers and 205s is, like the Marina and Avengers getting dragged along cos RWD Escrots  been daft money, the Metro is starting to get expensive.

MGs, Vanden Plas cars and vans, cos vans usually were driven into the ground and very, very few are left now, have gone up in value in recent months.

but if it stops nice cars loosing their engines for mini's than that is ok for me. even now 1275s have been getting their engines raped out of them and the remaining numbers of Metros have been falling off a cliff!

Not tat by any means but the latest iteration of the evergreen and really rather capable Lada Niva, cunningly updated for the modern marketplace complete with* seven speed auto box, touchscreen control centre, electronic damping and heated leather.
