Covid-19: Patients 'want to wait for English vaccine' or what old car did you have

Everyone loves a rat. I had a MK2 golf that was like that, and was all the better for it [emoji2]
Exactly - I don't wash vehicles ............ I drive them. Can't see from the inside. ;)

I think I had more fun driving that than anything I've owned. :D

Neighbours of my Parents had one too, beige with a brown vinyl roof. Man I used to love it.
 
That Perkins engine was awesome. They still fit the guts from that lump to forklifts even now. And I remember the montegos and maestros too. Great engine on the turbo diesel, quick too, but rusty when they left the showroom.

I didn’t used to live a million miles away from longbridge. I remember seeing all the cars almost abandoned in muddy fields in 2004 when they went under. It was very sobering.

(I also should’ve bought an MGZS V6 at the £4K they were selling them at, but hindsight is a wonderful thing!)

My mate had an MG Maestro, it was Rapid, I remember an old episode of Top Gear, where they put The MG Maestro up against the Golf Gti and the Peugeot 205 Gti, and the Maestro came out on top !!!
