Richie King or Thump Thump style custom is the new black .. a reaction to rat look and "matt black with flames" ... dontchaknow A nice clean cream coloured one dropped on some white walled smoothies would be just the ticket for me..

Also, you must chuck the back lights away! the very early ones are Kool, but the late ones are naff. I swear by teardrop back lights. Only £35 the pair and improve the looks no end!!

it doesn't matter if it's a Morris Marina or a Toyota Celica - it's what you do with it that counts

I'd be most appreciative of the book and of course I'll pay you for it! Just send me your address, I can afford a stamp! ;D

Hey Qwerty, I'm coming up to Consett over christmas. I've got some mates that live there (cant remember there address but they own Fantasia fancy dress shop) if i take the Minor i'll pop in and see you while i'm up there, will be travelling on to Whitley Bay after, should be a good road trip for the car.

Frankie (the owners husband) has had many kool cars, used to have an Austin A60 van, i think the peugeot is Melanies sensible side coming out. (you can always rely on a woman to be sensible)

I wouldn't say that mr Qwerty, you've definitely got the ideas, and i'm sure the mag readers will be more interested in a 19 year old that gives up he's saxo for a minor. far more interesting than an old bloke with a bamboo clad traveller!
