Ace. This is making me wish I hadn't got rid of my 21 Monaco now!

[r21turb]

The 205 is my brothers and is sporting a 405 Mi16 engine

 

 

Should've kept the Monaco getting really rare now

The Garage car park next to your place doesn't seem like a bad venue for an Autoshite get together!

[r21turb]

Yeah quite a nice spot, are you local to me than?

[warren t claim]

About 45min away in sunny Wirral.

[r21turb]

Ah okay, yeah know the Wirral well, my better half is from there and I work in Liverpool so up the A41 everyday.

 

Suprised you could recognise Loggerheads from that pic!
