Mr H says that all cars built before 2010 are dangourous and should be scrapped. My 1300 has a leaky windscreen so as a result it will now kill every nun and kitten in Britian. I am so selfish to drive it. :oops:

I just looked up our family car history and it seems every single one is dead. Actually quite saddened by that. :cry:

Oh and I'm going to look at a Mini on Sunday in a scheme to accumulate extra Dolomite funds.
What could possibly go wrong?

Oh dear, there's a lot of hate for Nitromors being used on alloy wheels on the internet.

Cheese. Love the stuff. But I don't appreciate having passengers losing slices of it in my car. OK Fiona? :evil:

Haven't touched my Beetle since the MoT in July, so uncovered it from its slumber today. Turn the ignition on, press and hold the accelerator firmly to the floor. Crank the key and 8 seconds later it bursts into life and runs like a dream. If only my Triumphs were like that! :lol:

The legend known as the vectra has finally kicked the bucket, a very sad day for all at Martyworld, the big question now is do I spend lots fixing it or buy a new car :cry:

We have an MOT courtesy of a set of Lucas horns and a £5 steering rack from Stoneleigh! :)
One down, one to go. Spitfire next week.
