Ital in Daily Mirror!

Post by Marinanut » Tue Feb 05, 2008 6:18 pm

The Daily Mirror is running an 80's week to coincide with the start of "Ashes to Ashes" this week and had a two-page spread toiday with 80's fashion and cars... illustrated by a 'V' reg Ital HLS! AND for once, they didn't sling the p** too much! :D
