Tim,

looking through some pictures... I spotted this:

He's currently got his early Series 1 SD1 being restored in Poland...

You say to bring him along to Stratford, but it is entirely possible that he will have his own BX by that point... Currently deciding whether to sell his Mk 1 Cavalier Sportshatch in order to fund getting another Valver. I guess you know him off the 16v Forum too. He hasn't had a BX since 2005, but driving mine has got him back into them, and when there is room i suspect another coming along.

He's really into BXs, and made sure to get the 16v in the price guides at PC... Must've had 15+ BXs over the years, I think 7 of them being valvers

My mum and dad aren't married, which is why we don't have the same name...

Regards,
Matt

Do what? Is he quite insane? :D Tell him to sell the Rover and keep the Cav instead. Or just sell me the Cav for a stupidly cheap price!
Incidentally Matt, you don't need to explain to anyone on here your parent's marital status.

It would be good if he could come, probably in the AX GT, but I think it coincides with the CzechWrecks Banger rally... Not 100% sure about dates, so I'll find out.
