I daren't work out the hourly rate.

Tell me about it! :-/

I've just scared myself into selling my broads cruiser. I've owned her for nearly 10 years, but last year worked out at over £2000 per day for the two days I spent on her. :-/

Hope the new owners look after her. Still, more cash to spend on the mig. 8-)

oh dear..... I've been wrestling with this one for a while, but I've figured "what the hell", so here goes.

Currently in the Granger fleet :-

That would tickle my fancy I must admit. 8-) :y

My number plate came from one of these.

My grandparents bought the number plate and got the car for free in 1972 iirc for £325  :)

Still got the brown stamped RFL/ V5 book thing.

My CDX is used at the weekned, and this is my daily drive:-






Its changed a little since these were taken

Just can't keep away from the Vxl V6  ;D

I have obviously my Omega (which for some reason i don't have any pictures of  :-? )

Also a Peugeot 106 1.5 Diesel for work


And my pride and joy (garaged most of the year! lol)

Not the best photos i'm afraid, but there's a full rebuild thread here: http://www.passionford.com/forum/restorations-rebuilds-and-projects/3548-1985-escort-cabriolet-restoration-summer-2010-a.html





I'll get some pictures up of the 106 and Omega over the weekend.

also has a story around it....

My mum always had 1300 V-P Princesses when I was little - I even learned to drive in one. Very hilarious for hill-starts, novice+hill+handbrake+hydrolastic is a great combination.

When I went off to University, I secured a sponsorship from Rolls-Royce Motor Cars designing engines. On the day I was born, my mentor started the design work for the twin-cam version of this 4-litre engine, so I resolved at the time to buy one - I spent my entire final year tooling about in it.

car now needs a full restoration, I have been collecting parts to build a replica of the 1960's works BMC rally "barges", which'll look great towing the 1100 rally car. Might even compete in it myself.
