Poo count ,

Breakfast pictures,

Mode of collection transport,

Woollard,

Pez short , 

Clues .......

Does it have 3 wheels and is it blue 🤔🤔🤔🤫

[mitsisigma01]

It's worse than that ... It's blue and has no wheels 

[GagaStan]

It has four wheels indeed

poo count? Maybe two so far, more tomorrow I hope

clues?! its automatic and beige. And japan spec

collection transport is my soon to be for sale 405 SRDT estate. Performed admirably in constant driving rain

[sutty2006]

Those 405s really are a treat. Shame to get rid!

 

is this a 2 day collekshun or is it so local you can pull out quickly if it turns to shit?

Hello!

[GagaStan]

Two day collekshun - sold it as a little winter getaway to the other half. He’s good to put up with my shenanigans 

new motor is more up my street than the 405, it has been a flawless motor so far

at this stage I can only justify one fun car! My sheddy Jazz does everyday stuff very nicely thank you, so I’m happy to get something a bit more… well… French 

next clue: it’s the same engine capacity as the dizzle wagon

Your wish is my command!

steering wheel is a bit sticky and mushy, but other than that it’s very liveable.

I’m a happy man, drowning in a sea of brown weed and caramel vinyl

350km and “1/4 of a tank” later we’re home. Whoop whoop!!

Thank you!!

To be an extreme pedant, that’s not possible as this particular 405 didn’t exist until 1997 😫

but I know what you mean. The motel had an exceptionally 90s vibe too - think textured plaster ceiling and blush pink formica in the bathroom. Woof.

Imperial schmimperial. The fewer reminders we have of Britain’s devastating, murderous colonialism of this place - the better.

don’t get me wrong - brits are a lovely bunch, and I’ve got nothing against them. Just don’t expect me to get hot and bothered about imperial units of measure!

[mitsisigma01]

I was only joking , there's nowhere left to invade and fk up ..... Unless we try Russia 😖

I don't see why it wouldn't pass a WOF - went through the last one no bother at all. It may need front pads and maybe disks before too long. But I haven't investigated fully

RUCs currently 10,000km in credit - I was planning to have it for the long haul. But then a bloody Citroen popped up...

it had 4x new continentals in December

everything works, apart from driver's side lecky mirror. it still heats the glass though. Has AC, climate control, blah blah

I bought it from the first owner, who took great care of it. Condition would be hard to beat

what else do ya wanna know?

[GagaStan]

@hairnet@STUNO some glamour shots for ya…

 

[hairnet]

how many pieces of paper with guy with the tashe would be needed?

was it you or marina that was slagging off poms
