StTropez back on the road. MOT pass.

[Stinkwheel]

Well i'm happy to report that Charlotte's new wheels are ready for the road as the StTropez passed its MOT yesterday after nearly a year off the road. A good going over wash and brush up and she was raring to go.
I had really forgotten how much of a joy the little 14 is with her willing and smooth engine and feel packed manual steering, what fun

Have a picture of her showing silly blue oval cars what's what!!

thats a mk1 golf isn't it , nothing oval about that


oh and congrats on the mot, the new job for Charlotte , the move ( Charlottes ) and all else that is new in your life matt , you deserve it

[Charlotte]

Yayyy! I have gone from chronic chevron deficiency to living in a BX sanctuary. Happy days.

good to see the Tesco Value BX still around, not AS shiny as it was but.....

[Philip Chidlow]

Excellent.

I owned that car for about a week lol! Very white indeed. Now all you have to do is drive it St. Tropez and get some nice pics

Much better than photographing it here...

[Stinkwheel]

Thanks to all for kind words

Tim, i believe as time goes on now she will start to look better and better bit by bit, i feel the old St Trop deserves a little pampering for a change.

Phil, StTropez to StTropez, i wonder is Dez fancies a roadtrip ?

Tim - I'm a polisher. She'll be looking like a toffee apple in no time

Great stuff. See the Retro-Rides meet in Peterboghorror is still happening then?

[Thread Bear]

I am sure this new return to the road will blessed with better luck than mine. Helps to know what your doing of course! Good to here happy tales. Good motivation.

[Stinkwheel]

Good motivation is now needed here, the 16TXi is resisting all attempts to make it not fecked!!!

[Charlotte]

Well one the St Trop is taxed and I start the new job things will be a lot easier and I'll be able to get that octopus!

Oy!! Watch that loose talk, Timothy! Thought you could sneak in a 'Tesco' dig while I was offline! No chance! (Eventually)...

@Stinkwheel - I've thought about St Tropez as a possible destination, but unless BX Club go as a gang and drive all over the beach, I'm lacking the necessary motivation.

Anyway, well done on getting it back on the road - thine and mine are fully 25% of the world's supply of roadworthy St Tropez. My MOT is due in November (funnily enough over NEC weekend) but unless I'm very much mistaken, passing shouldn't be a drama.

I expect yours will pass without the need for any work whatsoever, which is nice and as it should be

And i do agree about the idea of a StTropez jaunt, it would have be be part of a wider scheme, as its a bit far just to say 'we did that'

Im quite saddened that so few UK St Tropez have survived as they really are a bit different in the BX world these days.
