Cord Fourteener Posted April 8, 2020 Posted April 8, 2020 I don't have white linens with blue blazer nor do I have black rubber/pvc bandage suit, I hope you'll accept check shirt, chords and jumper or something! Obviously that is if I win, which I hope very much that I do!
Wgl2019 Posted April 8, 2020 Posted April 8, 2020 Just tried to explain the concept of the roffle to Mrs WGL. She doesn't compute. Then tried to explain a virtual roffle. Don't know why I bother..... she likes the gimp though!!?

chancer Posted April 8, 2020 Posted April 8, 2020 Aw man that is phenomenal! Surely roffle win of the year....all sorts of ideas for virtual collection which include setting up a hornby oo guage railway and picking the maserati up at the end of the line....probably not got time for that but i will try to do a collection thread.... supermellowman, Skizzer, Six-cylinder and 1 other 4
Sir Chocolate Teapot Posted April 8, 2020 Posted April 8, 2020 Now you show the Maserati with a james bond theme, if i had known i would have bought 3 tickets. Six-cylinder 1
richardmorris Posted April 9, 2020 Posted April 9, 2020 Comedy wipers on the model. The rest is pretty good. I have the traction one from Russia with love.
vulgalour Posted April 9, 2020 Posted April 9, 2020 Hooray I didn't win again! Looking forward to the collection story. That 'sharp suit' is also terrible, everything is cut wrong, the sleeves are too short, the trousers are too tight on the hips, the waist is too low and the whole mess looks incredibly uncomfortable. I suppose that makes it ideal for a Maserati collection since these things are often afflicted with similar Italian styling disasters for interiors. I mean really, look at the absolute state of this. It's like the car equivalent of a navy suit, pink shirt and brown loafers with no socks. Six-cylinder 1

It's like the car equivalent of a navy suit, pink shirt and brown loafers with no socks. That is horrible. It looks like someone started off with a perfectly acceptable cream interior, started to change the colour to 'caramel' by using brown shoe polish and then gave up... vulgalour 1
vulgalour Posted April 9, 2020 Posted April 9, 2020 I once had to clean the head restraints in a velour interior that had gone shiny and black with head grease. They looked like a black and grey version of those seats. In fact, that Maserati interior is so bad I've only just noticed the normally hideous aftermarket head unit which, in that interior, almost looks classy. Mrs6C 1
chancer Posted April 25, 2020 Posted April 25, 2020 So to bring this up to date, i have virtually collected this from Buckinghamshire back to Glasgow safely, with the help of Mrs6C who kindly dropped it off at the local post office, and also to Royal Mail who arranged a shitley to drop it off at my front door....with a cheery postie leaving it at a safe distance and signing his wee gadget for me. So what do we have then? Well packaged Scissors deployed to reveal.... Absolutely chuffed to bits with my first roffle win. We are in the middle of a house move right now so this will take pride of place in our new home. Many thanks to Chris and Claire for arranging the roffle, a kind gesture indeed! paulplom and LightBulbFun 2
