Happy Birthday Nick, have a great day

The 3 main parties are a shower of :turd: so expect nothing different unless Reform or similar gets voted, and even then I wouldn't hold my breath as they all seem to change their story once they get in :roll: I would never be surprised to see the tax and MOT exempt scheme scrapped (even if they lea...

I'll take a pic when I am back from Andrew's vast country estate. Get off my land! :lol: https://i.postimg.cc/PJK7h0nH/Get-Off-My-Land-Farmer.jpg Is that the guy who played the middle class neighbour in Saxondale with Steve Coogan?? EDIT not sure if it is.. but found the short film it's in and it's...

Looks great so far Nick

Garibaldis - my old mum's favourites!

Your mum had good taste in biscuits Paul

I was using a sticker gum remover the other day, a quite aggressive solvent, and it started taking off the matt paint that was on there since before I bought the car. So I kept rubbing and underneath was this lovely deep lustrous original rosso red. So well preserved you wouldn't believe. I'll take...

Nice find MT

My dad bought a Mk3 Sceptre (Hunter shape) in 1974 and kept it 6 years, that was the longest he had ever owned a car. Nice cars and I imagine the earlier Humbers were good too, nice bit of luxury and reasonable prices now if you can find a decent one.

Holy thread resurrection, Batman! :D My 5 litre bottle of Britemax Spray & Shine is finally getting to the end, but the Britemax stuff doesn't appear to be available any more. I am leaning towards Autoglym Rapid Detailer, but would be interested to hear of any of you guys have any other recomme...

It looks like a nice car, although I'm surprised that the previous owners have kept the original invoice, but not all of the paperwork that would support the claims of a reasonably low mileage. Andrew. :agree: Andrew. A service book and receipts etc don't take up alot of room, but amazes me how man...

Must agree Martin , hope the new hip is bedding in well fella and nice to see you back .

I started watching this a few years ago but I soon went off it. Don't watch many American shows at all. I've watched most American and UK car programmes and they pretty much all follow the same format, sensible mechanics/fabricators and the dicks that think they are funny. So I watch odds and ends ...

Funnily enough a mate with a lovely Fiesta Supersport won the award last year but dropped out of the show the day before, so I said if I win i'll look after it for him until next time

Saw smaller version last night in To Sir, with Love and thought how hygenic they were

Thanks for the positive comments! I've put some NOS bumper inserts on it since this event as one wasn't up to standard :whistle: The organiser told me about 125 cars didn't turn up on the day, and I know at least a handfull of those would probably have beaten mine, but they didn't come so i'll have ...

First registered 42 years ago today. This picture was taken end August when it won 'best in show' against approx 400 other cars

When my car spends more time in the garage than out, I've certainly thought 'what's the point' on more than one occasion, but when I drive it on a nice dry day that's why it stays with me :) I admire anyone that uses their classic on a daily/weekly basis in all weather and I know opinions differ, bu...
