All nice cars lol, for me its the old Fords mainly. them RS2000's would be worth a few quid in that condition today! The mk1 capri is gorgeous, always promised meself a 3.0 mk1 before i was old enough to drive but i still aint had one!
I remember the P100, someone at chavamania owned it after you i remember.

yeah after i had it i think it had another set of wheels and some chrome exhaust tips stuck on,then it did a lap of the town after i had it-in more ways than one biggrinbiggrin

The Capri was a 3.0 but the guy before me had summat done with the engine cos it was frighteningly quick! I ha 7 RS's including 2 Mexico's,the one that was bare-metal repainted turned out real nice but the black one was my favourite,funny cos just before my accident i had to sell the last one i had i struggled to get £1,400 for!! they're making serious money nowdisbelief pity i dont have many pics of the last 10 or so years of my cars,must have not owned a camera i guess!

Don't think there are any photo's of Sniper's '65 & '72 Beetles and seeing as he didn't own the Golf long enough to photograph it, there's none of that either.

But here's one of the old Commer fire engine, sold so we could buy a fridge-freezer!



1964 Sunbeam Rapier, sold when we bought the blue Humber.


Not a car, but we did restore this.


And helped to restore this Bristol L bus.

Being from Essex I`d hope you know what the van thing is.I guess your`re talking about the one with the roof rails.
That"ll be one of the MK2 Consul/Zep/zodiac as a Farnham/Conversion to an estate n then the back doors n windows have been filled in..........Cool innit ? There`s also a couple of pick ups/utes running around Essex too that were built as standard

And Pete thinks he's got problems with that Austin! disbelief.gif But the Commer would have been fine if time and money hadn't been a problem, oh and storage.
