A 5 year love affair

Post by BX596 »

Well,I've now had my "Burgundy Beauty" 5 years :shock: 8)
I'd like to thank all the people on here for their help and support over the last 5 years,especially Ken,without whose knowledge,assistance and mechanical skills,my car would now be waiting to be made into tin cans in China.Thanks everybody and a happy Christmas to you all.Tim,if you'd like a longer,more boring account for the CCC magazine,give me a shout.Thanks again,
Deano

Welcome back again Dean!
A very happy christmas and prosperous new year to you and yours.
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...
