HELLO FROM A NEWBIE

[aled]

i have been reading this site for a few months now and quite enjoy reading your posts, i just thaught i would register and show you some of my cars.

 

the pug 205 gt and the tagora belong to a mate of mine and the mercedies280c belongs to a workmate.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

the white car is now sold and by next w/end i will be the proud owner of a 1975 datsun 100a with 40.000 on the clock

[Volksy]

Welcome!Anyone who even has access to a Tagora is a worthy member in my eyes

[Mr_Bo11ox]

I think you fit into the 'Autoshite' demographic exceptionally well! Welcome! Looks like you have got a class 'shedfull' there.

[HillmanImp]

That is the biggest collection of Imps i have seen in years. I am jealous. What are you doing with them?

[Guest greenvanman]

Welcome! Love the Husky.

[aled]

Good work. I need to get out and do a bit of that kind of stuff on mine, rather than sitting here on my computer talking about it.When the weather improves....

Welcome. A great collection of Imps there. I`m eagerly awaiting pictures of your Datsun 100A Cherry.

[aled]

[ChinaTom]

Welcome, newbie!KWN plate on that Talbot is local isn't it? My parents used to have a Hillman Minx that was PWN and a mate's dad had a gold Viva Estate (this was in the 70s when that kind of thing wasn't unusual) that was GWN.

[garethj]

Grew up in Neath, Llanelli is pretty exotic for me The only Talbot garage I can think of is Tommy Walters in Skewen, don't suppose there's any dealer stickers on there?
