NorfolkNWeigh Posted December 26, 2020 Share Posted December 26, 2020 Looking through the pictures, I do believe if Autoshite was real life @motorpunk would out sell Giles Chapman in the Christmas car book sales charts.

brownnova Posted December 26, 2020 Share Posted December 26, 2020 Thank you Santa for the naked lady air fresheners.... (Mrs Nova says I can’t put them in my car as I work with children... little does she know that means they’ll go in the Campervan) and the Whiskey!!!

Jerzy Woking Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 I like getting something someone has owned but either didn't use or no longer has a use for it. The Parkside workbench I received last year has been used one hell of a lot since I moved into my new place. *Nothing received this year (so far) which I put down to couriers/Post Office and the distance involved. If nothing turns up, well, no matter, as i know that someone went to the trouble of getting whatever wrapped and into the post. It is the thought that counts to me. groovylee, stephen01, chodweaver and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

95 quid Peugeot Posted December 28, 2020 Author Share Posted December 28, 2020 My elves are happy to wrap up what you all send me for dispatch. I think we all realise, more so this year, we're not all in the same boat financially, and it's nice just to receive something fun, which after all is why we do it, i dont think in all honesty anyone is fussed with costs or having a price pissing up the wall competition. Im glad we've all had a good Christmas, and here to participate. Ta till next year.

stephen01 Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 I did a 50 mile round trip to pick my present up as it was no longer available new, guy didn’t want to post it out then RM sent it bloody back to me. 😂 I posted it out on the last day of posting so hopefully my match has received it, @Jerzy Woking it wasn’t you 🙃 Jerzy Woking 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

St.Jude Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 Just wanted to say thank you to the thoughtful Santa who got me the Lada from the bond films. Even the wife was impressed. Less impressed am I at my gift not being sent yet. So if you're waiting for one, it'll be with you in the new year. Sorry about that but 2020 is really a shitter of a year.

The chassis alignment is just like a real NASCAR. Apart from a tiny dab of OPPO just before you crash into the concrete wall anyway, it can only make left turns.

JimH Posted January 6, 2021 Share Posted January 6, 2021 Although values have dipped somewhat lately the steamers are still quite valuable so theft is always a concern. Fortunately Secret Santa came to the rescue. We can sleep soundly now. He also gave me some handy pamphlets to help me choose my next Talbot or Lancia so thanks for that. *Wasn't being rude but I'd forgotten I'd got it delivered to my office and I only came back to work yesterday. loserone, groovylee, Rovorsche and 7 others 6 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaptainBoom Posted January 9, 2021 Share Posted January 9, 2021 Many thanks for my Secret Santa, this was actually a genuinely nice present to open. I was impressed with the Matchbox Transit dropside, my Grandfather drove one when he worked at Dibbens a long time ago. I love the multicoloured cable ties, these have been pressed into service at work already. Sorry, postie managed to only just deliver it, despite the postmarked date. I think the local delivery office has struggled lately. w00dy and Jerzy Woking 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
