Glad things are sorted Tim. Annual leave in December! You're lucky mate.

Use it or loose it really Mark, it is our quiet period so best time to take off, saying that this last week has been bonkers busy!

What's selling the most at the mo? Up!?

Polo really, £1000 deposit and a 1 years free insurance but the UP is doing well, the last few Mk6 Golfs have now gone as there was £2000 towards them too!

Silly question really isn't it TIm? You've been hankering after a turbo BX, and I can say it's quite worth it

[Tim Leech]

Your quite right Tom, its just finiding the right one, I fear it wont be for a while, as various soft furnishings and a rather large corner sofa have taken the car funds for now!

WTF is taxed! and will be havings it manual choke conversion tomorrow and a good run out too, plus fit the new seat bases out of the red shed which are now clean plus a good clean!

Grrr sodding weather, what with the snow and the arrival of something else to keep me busy I just havent done any BX'ing this year

WTF has attended two Motoring Museums in a week, today the GCCG displayed their cars at the Coventry Motor Museum, a great day out, plus we blagged a ride up to the secret store 5 miles away which was fabulous, and far more fun than the museum itself.

She stood proud with lots of british metal, Rolls Royces and a like and there was a few kind comments more along the lines of "what a lovely colour" and "how clean is that"

With 4 up and some long winding climbs on the way home I will be glad of the TCT if an when its fitted!

Pfffft. I was four up in the 2CV yesterday on the hills around here. Now that was hard work!

I have to say though, WTF is an absolute beauty of a BX. Looks absolutely bob on.

Those speedlines look cracking with that colour

Quite agree Andrew they really suit the car, especially with the two tone bumpers etc, however I took my inspiration from one of our Australian members.

Once she has a bit more oooomph and a bit more details are attended too (wire up the fog lamps) and theres a couple of stone chips to take care off she will be a great car.

Looks like a grand day out as Wallace would say. I must confess to having a soft spot for the Rover 800 series, especially in fastback guise. Driven a few over the years and IMHO an underrated car.
