Re: The Classic Car Show on Channel 5
Yes good thoughts Andrew, pretty much agree. I also liked the Alex Riley segments. Again it's disappointing to see Wilson forever putting him/the cars down, looking down his nose at them for their cheapness and lack of viable increase in value, 'may only make £500 or so, much better to buy a 25 gran...

Re: The Classic Car Show on Channel 5
I've still watched every episode, but have felt a little disappointed still, far too much focus on finance and money. 'Buy one of these it will double in value in a few years.' I don't really feel that's the reason to buy a classic car. Seem to be forever looking down their noses if a car is worth l...

You need to put a price up really, if you wish to sell something.

Re: Bonnet please!
I see, thanks Matt. Fibreglass panels, although I have little experience with them, fascinate me for some reason. Are you certain that the bonnet is at fault though, and not the wing?

That's true enough. It is more of a collector's piece I guess. The enjoyment I get from driving my Laser is truly immensepeers.dupp wrote:...if you would like a Capri for driving and enjoying, for most owners the 280 won't offer any increased pleasure over the Injection Special.

Re: windscreen wiper blades
Thanks Nick. I just changed the rubbers on mine but do think I need to change the whole blades. Never thought of Halfords, they are similar to the originals then?Fordoholic Nick wrote:I bought the standard Halfords ones at £7 each for front and £9 for rear.
