Everybody's seem to be coming out like a Porsche 944. Just imagine for a moment if they'd made that car instead...

Careful what you wish for Justyn. The chairman of the club for the southeast (or possibly all UK?) for these clown cars lived in Horley until recently. He had about 8 on the drive and another pile stored elsewhere. Then there was his wifes collection. Oh and his parents. And his daughters. They used to turn up at CT meets. Gosh the jolly tales they did regail us with. About wizkids and, ..... and... wizkids, and um, fixing wizkids. Now, shall I pass on your details? Or would you like to pass to me a suitable number of amnesia inducing purple beer tokens?

I drove one for a while, bout three months. it was a loaner from a mate. It had its plus points:

It was free (I guess they are not all free?)
You could get the engine out in 45 mnutes
It flew round corners
It flew round corners even more so in the wet
it had a comfy driving position and did 90 mph - I kid you not.

It cost £90 for a wheel bearing....not that is a minus point and it flooded in any kind of rain, but it was kinda fun....
