Here are some BXs I've spotted on my travels.
J471 GHU, Gold 1.6 petrol hatch - Weybridge, Surrey.
F271 EST, Cream 1.6 petrol hatch - Lt Wigborough, nr Colchester, Essex.
F526 SGV, White 1.6 petrol (turbo?) hatch - Kettering, Northants.
H625 DNH, Meteor 1.6 hatch - Cambridge.
All these were runners in good condition, and not for sale!
Meanwhile, looking at some pics I took in 2002, I found the following.
G917 LAH, Light blue 1.6 petrol hatch - Halesworth, Suffolk.
G508 BPM, Light blue 1.6 petrol hatch - Harwich, Essex.
I wonder if these two are still about?

Finally, seasons greetings to all BX club members.

Regards
John Podgorski/jrdpod.

Probably Tim, but they might be on SORN?

Post by **docchevron** » Fri Dec 29, 2006 4:43 am

Nope, if they were on SORN the DVLA would have them listed as such.
It's possible that they were never SORN'd and are off road though, since if they were SORN'd it would say so. Or at least it does with all the stiff I've tried.

STUFF is what I should have typed. Another fine example of why I shouldn't be allowed near a computer after too many Ales!!!

One of the joys of the PHPbb forum.

You can auto-correct any particular word, and have the foum display something else. Usually used for sweary-words, where the word is replaced by something less sweary.

Or, as on the Barryboys forum, they replace "metro" with "rusting 80's heap of shit"

Here it would seem that "Viagra" has been replaced with the backup alarm from red dwarf.

And as you'll notice, it's fairly easy to get round, as I've managed to display the word Viagra without it going Viagra
