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: :)
sadly a reissue - I've wanted one since 1982 and this year my parents finally gave in :lol: :lol:

Bigtrak jr which comes out just in time for xmas doesn't have bluetooth but...........

Bigtrak Jr boasts all the functions and features of the original Bigtrak but 21st century technology is used to expand and enhance the basic Bigtrak play concept of pre-programming and is capable of permanently storing up to 32 moves and travel up to 20 metres so you won’t be disappointed!

Bigtrak Jr comes with a new ‘active accessory port’ allowing it to utilise a number of exciting add-ons such as a digital camera and foam rocket launcher enabling it to carry out new and unique missions – we can’t wait! The new accessories will be coming soon! Bigtrak Jr also has a new memory save function – phew!

Why dont ESSO do that anymore? I've still got a Tiger breakfast bowl somewhere.
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 have one of those, largely since the Shell garage is on the way to the Motorway from here, and cheaper than the Somerfield 30 seconds away, hence I use the Shell, but yes, I cant see the point of the card at all, I'd have to fill the bus up there everyday for a year to get anything at all..

I must have had a very sheltered youth, I've never heard of BigTrak before!
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...

Should we send out a search party for "TZD"? Maybe he's one of those people lost on the M25 - they just go round and round, never to find their desired junction...

Well I'm dead excited by this. I definitely want a Jr, and I'll probably buy a full-size one too, to give my vintage one a rest.

I'm not sure BXClub would like host a Bigtrak rally, though... :oops:

One night one of us will be going around that dread circle with the stop light on, and sweaty palms, when out of nowhere will appear tzd to guide us into the services selling lhm.
