I love Marios attitude. So entertaining the pair of them.
Do it right - use Hammerite

Must be me but I thought the program wasn't that good.
Mainly the two 'stars' that err, star in it.
That is so true but I like to see what they do to get round problems. The better program is 'Classic Car Rescue'.
Classic car rescue? With Bernie and Mawio?? Are you on drugs???????????

Well I watched the Stag one........saw Red Robbo in one of the news clips, I new him via a friend. As for the Stag I still think it was a disaster on wheels and let's not blame the workers.
Next time it is that awful awful Mini. I used to hang upside down to do the points. Arghhhhhhh.

Can't remember why I didn't do that. It has been a lifetime since I worked on one. Done a few oversprays on them though.How dare you slate the classic mini and to do the points why not just take the grill off

Austin 1100! Austin 1100!
I used to dream of owning an Austin 1100.
So I got a Moggy 1000 with red leather seats and a 2.2 straight 6 in it.

Excellent, must have gone the proverbial!!
The oldest I've had was a AJS 500, BSA Starfire C15 (with apehangers), Viva HA, Wolseley 1500 and a Consul 375. Happy days!

You remember the Sunbeam Rapier then I bet. My first car was a sit up and beg Ford with rod brakes. Gave it some repairs, painted it and I sold it to the milkman.

So, he must have been the fastest milkman in the West. I really liked the Rapier, but the Tiger was more looney.

Was the tiger used in other things beside the Alpine? I had an Alpine and it came with a hard top. I could never use the hard top because me head was higher then the windscreen. Another motor I really hated. Talking of milkmen it couldn't even see off a milk float. I think I owned it for about 6 weeks.
