TonyW Posted January 5, 2011 Share Posted January 5, 2011 A good friend of mine is getting married in the summer and for his stag-do has asked that we have a Top Gear style weekend where we spend peanuts on some ropey old banger which is then taken through some 'special challenges' and then ragged at Santa Pod at their run-what-you-brung sessions. If anyone has such a vehicle, pref with MOT till the end of Feb at a minimum then please let me know. I'm based in York, would like something old and fast. I know £300 is not going to buy much but thats part of the challenge! Tony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the link though Jamster! Currently toying with the prospect of either an old Saab 900 (maybe or maybe not with smoking turbo) or the comedy value of an Austin Metro. I am however very much open to ideas... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TonyW Posted January 17, 2011 Author Share Posted January 17, 2011 I did see that and got excited till I saw the bit about no MOT. My Dad once had one in maroon, would have been a little trip down memory lane... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
