Re: The Ace Cafe Capri Day 2018

It's great that everybody so far has got a space in the main car park. Although I'm surprised as the registration process opened 3 weeks ago and there's only 40ish spaces available. I would have thought all the spaces would have been snapped up long ago. Andrew. I booked mine when the registration ...

Re: MOO 732V 3.0 Ghia

I may be premature but can I ask what people think moo would be worth on the open market. I know she’s only worth what someone will pay but just curious atm More than likely a lot less than it stands you in when you factor in the value of the car and the recent restoration costs. There was restored...

Trust me it will be fine.
Once you hear the burble of the exhausts the smile will soon come back and any worries will fade to a distant memory.
Just drive it and enjoy it .

Re: Salvage Hunters Classic Cars

I love a car programme.

Miss the old WD with Edd in England not none of the American stuff

My only comment would be that the Mini Bonnet didn't line up....Look at it when they show the drivers side Its about 1/2 inch out and the gap between the grill and bonnet is all over the place.
