Re: New Ford Capri.

Another name reinventing itself soon is the ‘Honda prelude’. Just seen a pic from a car show. Yeah it’s ok but I had an original mk1 prelude and that brings back fond memories. Great little car to drive with all of 84bhp from its 1.6 carb engine.Electric sunroof as well lol but as always in the 80’s...

Did look at merc slk / slc and still like them but think TT has the edge in looks . Time to scour the a...

Re: Insurance renewal.

My daughter told me her insurance had gone up by about 25% this year. She contacted her insurance and they said everyone has put them up due to repairs being more expensive. After a check on the usual sites, this is correct. So, expect your premium to go up guys. 40% for my st-line x ! No changes e...

Re: First music gig?.... Favourite gig?

First gig - depeche mode 1983 Brighton
Best gig - agree with Sanny Michael Jackson history tour 1997 - amazing. Tina turner with belinda carlisle similar year also superb.

Re: Puma in the trees

Could I politely ask the location please ? The wife suffers from anxiety and this setting would be ideal for a long weekend etc.
Nice pic of the car btw.

Re: ST driver, Local idiot.

I was driving in the city this morning and a blue Puma ST loomed up in the rear mirror. Driver seemed to be upset he was behind me and kept closing the gap and making the car sound like his exhaust was broken. We went across a roundabout where he nearly crossed into the wrong lane and forced anothe...

Re: Soon to be owner

Broke the good news to the wife last night and kind of glossed the reasons for change up a bit.

She has her own car anyway so is ...
