Cornish Sunset over the biggest bonnet in the business! Scrap-yard owners have started frowning - can Cla$$ic status be very far away?
Pity about the rust, but the Capri was the first car I've owned & didn't feel the need to carry my toolbox around.

Le Capri est Mort -

or a tale of Two Capris ...

I'm not sure what put me off the motorcycle.
Was it that very cold winter?
Or the idea of using your nose as a bumper?

If I wore green wellies, I might still own the Dutton Sierra.
- Commuting on the M6 at -20 mpg... !
The new owner got a great deal!

Mini Marcos
The ultimate recyclable machine - and tax exempt these days too!
Fast (-ish), economical, road-holding to match a go-cart...
The Red Dwarf really had a lot of things going for it.
Street Cred was not one of them.

Before

After

TR7 - Don't listen to the flat-capped, string-backed, purist brigade! Banger money bought a taste of pure, true love!
Not without problems mind, but I always got home from some pretty far-flung corners.
I cut & filled every single panel. Even the patches were rotting before I'd finished.

Fond, fond memories; but please don't ask for help setting the points!!
And using brake pads with a Mini part number is cheap, but a little disconcerting....
Eventually after 120K (AND the rest!), I discovered the economies of three-cylinder motoring.

Don't it always seem to be, you don't know what you got 'till it's gone. Joanie knew the score!
XR3i handbrake turns in the Derbyshire snow - Belt down the M1 only to seize the engine on the Luton off-ramp. Almost got me home!

When Dr Who meets Top Gear, this Vyrnwy timewarp could probably be the Reasonably Priced Tardis.
Good Tardis colour and loyal too. This feisty assistant cruelly scrapped before summer season 5. Must now the Time Lords billie yet a different Piper?

Test drive and what turned out to be final outing for the Rover 218 vvc.
Love/Hate relationship with the Firecat tends towards begrudging affection, but passion hath no sway and fidelity runs only overspray deep. Faithlessness has a price of twenty two score sheckels and a half, and the exaction of regret.
