Is it my computer or have the chemical clouds over Teeside melted your photos? You'll have to describe your current chariot.Has it got three wheels and painted sky blue perchance?

Did not know that was a soft top!
I had a P reg Honda in that red - Here it is or was!
But this is what I have now as it has more space to carry Marina parts around!!

Knew I recognised those motors Fergus! Had to scroll up to see the username to make sure!
For gigs, I drive an '05 Opel Combo van, 1.3CDTi. A little cracker. It had a water leak which meant I had to remove all the carpets though. I've put 70k on that since January 08.
Herself has a '00 Opel Astra, bought from my dad with 40k on the clock.
Up to Wednesday last I had a MKV transit, which I used for mucking around renovating the house etc. You know when someone says " You could be hit by bus tomorrow?" Well i was:
Then there's my 1969 Triumph Herald:
that'll be going soon.
My latest present to myself is this:
A lovely drive and a lot of fun!

Thats my car

It has been in the same city garage for over 10 years but due to money problems I have to store my ´new´ 9 year old Hiace in the garage while I save some money for a new windscreen to pass the MOT to get it new numberplates.So sadly the Marina has been outside for 3 months in all weathers in the meat packing area famous for trendy new cafes and east eurpoean street hookers - I also happen to live very closeby! There are a handful of other Mk1 Marinas in Copenhagen in 2009,a pair of rusty Mk2 1.3 coupes, 1 green , 1 maroon, and at least 3 very good Mk1 1.3s,a dark green 2 door, a yellow-orange 2 door and a red 4 door (from the TV commercial link I posted here last year).A good friend has a pair of vans in store, and an acquaintance has a near mint Mk 2 coupe and 2 TC coupes are listed as owned by veteran car club members Ãn need of restoration´although I have never seen them. There probably are a few more Mk1 1.3s tucked away here somewhere although I dont know where.......
