The last couple of weeks has seen some excellent Zeding weather. Unfortunately i've been tied up with prepairing for the next George Lucas sequel so missed it all

 

 

Imperial Storm Trooper?????? nah right tit! I snapped my achillies on my cross Scotland hike 3 weeks ago and have been in this since. Only another 9 weeks to go and banned from driving manuals so wont be out to play in the Z for some time yet.

Ya great eejit :tt2:

 

I wondered why you hadn't been on, wanting to go for a KFC ....

 

You up for a meet in mid-August then :whistling:

 

I hope that it doesn't hurt too much Robert, I'll come round for blether soon.

Will need to see how it's mended in August, Trust me for only wanting manuals in the past. I've now got 2 cars parked up doing diddly squat. I have spent the last week or so hunting autotrader ebay and gumtree for a cheep wee auto run about. somehow I always end up looking at bigger beasties. Though I have kinda been put of the E Classes after reading about the cost of sbc replacments and the amount of electrical problems with them.

Cheap wee runabout - look no further .....

Prefer this one that I had been watching, and it was a lot closer too.

Dont think I could have kept it going in juice though

It's not the petrol, they are very, very expensive to buy parts for, too many damn electrics, control units and sensors to go wrong - and they do go wrong.

 

Now, if you can find a good old W202 C class or W124 E class ........

Or as Alan suggested a couple of months ago a 300C................just happen to be going to have a look at one on Thursday

Wow as per the title of this thread the guy on channel 4 just now certainly had em. On the scale of Ivor Biggun from viz eewwwww never mind the wheel barrow bring on the fork lift.

Im aiming for one of those mercs at the end of the year, but im going for a couple of blowers hanging off it :D

Have a look on gumtree mate there are some cracking looking V12 jobs come up for not a lot of dosh, oodles of power and more steer skin than in a John Wayne cattle drive. I'm after a daily so could not hack the cost of the fuel and repair bills that would no doubt ground a 747. Looks like I'm joining the Ant Hill Mob crew anyways :)

i have mate, not many bi turbos though :(
