Blimey, I just squirted my Primula! That GAZ is bloody gorgeous! Well done, where did you spot it?

On a Leicester side street normally full of rooms to rent for students.

The blue standard example is lovely, but not really shite imo - too 'classic' for that!However, I'd like to drive around in the orange one, shouting at pikies, pretending to be Viv from the 'young ones'. Or something.

You'd need a yellow Anglebox to truly be like Viv! I actually saw the one they used in The Young Ones parked up in Wandsworth back in 1986. Got some pics of it up in the loft I believe.

Heres proof you should never listen to a dealer

I stopped this being scrapped in 2001-still with some tax+test

One of our customers was told it would never pass another mot and he was sold a corsa combo at dealers prices-scrap the escort we dont want it they said.

Bought by my mate for £80 he tested it after a few months use-needed two very small bits of welding/new steering rack. Then sold on.

And here it is still about 8 years later! Dealers! :roll:
