Is it?

I always said 'tokens' as it sounded better. Perhaps I've always got it wrong? I assumed it was one of those offers that you could get say in Esso garages in the 80s and 90s when you saved up 'Tiger Tokens' for kitchen hardware! :D

Smokes lots, because enough's enough already!

Far too many BX's, a bus, an ambulance a few trucks, not enough time and never enough cash...

You get a "clubcard" from our local Shell garage and you get points, mind you the amount of points you need to get anything worth having is a joke!

I still have a cuddly tiger and a tiger in my tank keyring :oops:

although to be fair they were my dads tokens, I'm far to young :D

Oh and welcome tzd, the TZD is rather nice and those rear headphone sockets a real bonus :)

A Bigtrak (or Big Trak if you're American...)

Is it a reissue, or an original? I've got an original grey import - literally (American ones were silver/grey, not white).

I digress. Sad really.. :oops: :)

:D I spotted her new avatar on another thread...I like! Bought one last year to make up for never having one when I was young, I hear now they have re-released them though. I wonder if the newer ones have more functionality, bluetooth perhaps?

Ah yes, but could any of you common or garden Citroen types actually afford a decent car like a Vauxhall? :lol:

My first motor was a Mk1 Bedford CF, which I kept for 7 years before selling it to buy an H van!

I also had a Viva HC which sounded like a bag of nails despite having only 45k on the clock.
