Will try to make it to this one. Weather and MOT woes dependant!

In the absence of the real thing, the postman bought this the other day. Obviously it’s the Caterham kit, but as it’s yellow and black I had to have it. Rejigged it so the exhaust exits on the correct side (Zetec) and lost all the Caterham badging and I’ll probably make a windscreen for it, but it’s pretty close to what we’ll be driving in a couple of weeks (hopefully!)

Sue at the Highland Moors would like us to pre-order our dinner choices, starter and main. Let me have yours I'll pass them on as a group to Sue. A la carte 2025.doc

Time to buy the other half some flowers and get permission for this East anglia drive out. Even better bring her with you not forgetting her purse so they can buy you some fish and chips.

I've had a few interesting cars over the years, notable ones being a Ford Corsair 1700 V4 with column shift, my Elan +2S 130 rare 4 speed model, a London Cab FX4 and a TX1, several mk 1 Escorts, mk2, 3, 4 and 5 Cortinas, an XK and an early X5, multiple kit cars and plenty more I can't even remember. Oh yeah, my 1.9 205 GTi was an epic little car.

I may have a spare weekend adult ticket for this. I have a sore car ticket (which comes with 2 adult tickets) and I have a free child’s ticket for my son. As there is only two of us coming I may have a spare adults rocket if needed…

My history is full of horrific reliability, a few car crashes, being seduced by looks over function, massive expense, and desperately high levels of maintenance..... Oh, I forgot we were talking about cars for a moment! 😂

Mine's burned into my memory VW Beetle - I can still disassemble and reassemble one in the dark Ford Escort - 4 door 1.1 engine - not one of the good ones Ford Capri - you were never sure if it was going to go through the hedge backwards or forwards Mini - fond memories of bypass hoses Triumph TR 7V8 - used to eat front wheel bearings for some reason; made me loathe pop up headlights Seat Ibiza - pre VW days; easily the most unreliable car I've ever owned and I've owned some right ****boxes Mini Metro - burst into flames one day UVA Fugitive - even less practical than a westie Ford Fiesta - bought it with Barclaycard points; cracking car; ran it into the ground Mini Moke - bizarrely went fantastically well in the snow while simultaneously being totally impractical for the snow Scimitar SS1 - underrated flying machine with the endearing habit of the front wishbones falling apart while driving at speed Land Rover Series 2 lightweight - I've had cars that let in water in through the roof but this is the only one that let water in through the floor - burst into flames one day (another Rover - coincidence?) Porsche 968 - easily the most reliable car I've ever owned Smart Car - I think the engine recalls got into double figures Mazda MX5 - fantastic car but turned into a brown doily Audi A3 - not worth anything but won't die Westie 😁

I can't even remember half of my car history 😂

PDM32 has arrived back from repair at AiM, ready to go back in the car. Although it was annoying that it needed repairing, I think the repair process with AiM was extremely straightforward.

My first car was also a SuperSport my Second a 1986 XR2. oh how I wish I'd kept the supersport

It was a SuperSport, my first proper car, followed by 2 brand new XR2s. A 1986 and 1988.

Interesting car history, I had a Civic GL and a Mini which was probably faster than the Civic ! I had a mk2 XR2 before those. Was the Mk1 a Supersport or XR2 Robin ?

Thanks guys. I remember that trip. I was picking up a fibreglass body and extra wide arches for myself and seats for Rab. I was knackered, down and up overnight with a few hours kip on the bench seat of the transit I was driving. Still got the parts collected but hopefully they will be fitted this year!

It was XR2 to CRX, the mini was my wifes.

Mini Mayfair to a CRX would have been a bit of a step up. I know that going from a 1.4 Cavalier to a Civic EG VTi was!!

Retirement gift to myself. My car history from 1980-2025 from carvolutioncompany.com. Very pleased with it.
