i have a van size parking space on my drive ,

Glad you are getting it back Chris. Easy to get to. Straight up the A1 to the Edinburgh bypass.
Follow the sign for the Forth Road Bridge. Over the bridge and carry on until you see the sign for Bridge of Earn. Take the slip road and then turn right and keep going until you come to a roundabout. Turn left and the cottage is in the left hand side. Good luck mate you wont be disappointed............Larry.

Collected my old car yesterday and very happy, its been well looked after for the last 10 years but I think its only done about 7 or 8 thousand miles since I sold it. Nice to have it back- Thanks Larry.

No bother Chris. Its in good nick and has had a lot of new parts fitted. Not many left up here now. Only 2 and I dont know how long the Champagne Beige one will last because the last time I saw it both front wings were rotten and one of the back quarter panels. The last time I saw a photo of it was on Autoshite. Where it is now I havent a clue.Maybe see your estate at Moffat or Selkirk this year Chris.

That looks 'ard as nails.

What he said.

Missing your trip blogs Kilroy, they were fantastic reads.

Why - thank you number 63 - I am very pleased to have spread some joy..
Most sincerely.

I did not get to take many photos this holiday - well - not many that had Marinas in them at least.
We were camping - so it was much more drinking, and much less driving.!

We managed to look pretty silly though...





.. while we messed around in boats in an idyllic setting...





.. and I wore my Marina T shirt just to keep the faith..!





Cheers.!

Just booked my plain ticket
That looks lovely

Here is a couple of pics of my estate.

Like the colour scheme, it suits it well

This one needs some work.
Someone tried to put a 6 cyl in it without realising morris & leyland bodies are way different.
They welded new tunnel & 6 cylinder engine mounts in without changing firewall so the engine leaned backwards & bent the firewall.
They used Aussie seat brackets but bolted them, not welded,so they pulled through the floor.
They did replace diff with 6 cyl one & swapped hubs on front for Aussie stud pattern.
There is bits of rust coming through all over,nothing major just annoying.
I kind of like the wagon shape over all the others,shame they didn't sell them here.
