Sharpish is not in my vocabulary so that's a no from this side of the screen.

I will get round to them but at the moment they are blocked in.

Were you not tempted to make a hydropneumatic 305 van?

I like the look of those Cougars

Its funny you should say that as I did actually lie under it and measure the mounting points,  thank god I talked myself out of it though as I've still got loads to do to the van anyway,

The cougar drives very well and is quite lively and I don't think they will get any cheaper.

Would anyone buy a car from this photo alone,  yup I thought not now just need to try and collect it while still in lock down.

And in other news the family Beemer was getting a bit rough around the edges so the wife found a replacement,

I blagged a free mug ontop of a tank of fuel.

This rs was very tempting and I actually hate mk3 scrotes too,  it was mint and I do mean mint even the underside bolts where like new,  trailer queen possibly?

It was sharing space with some very expensive metal that's for sure.
