I saw this at the Secret Cinema and tried to explain to my entirely uninterested girlfriend that "this is the Blazer build I've been following on RR!"

I have dated a few girls who had no clue or interest. Most of my colleagues pretty much donโt get it either, to them groceries from Waitrose, a 1,2,3 series BMWbis their frame of reference. Got sent this pic by my ex lodger tonight. Lego. Fame?

Back up for sale. Price shows just how classics, cheap cars have increased in value. And people are paying for them. I hope he makes his price.

I wouldn't expect the person that resprayed this did anything to address the rust on it apart from copious amounts of P38

Mate Martin sent a screenshot from his phone. Seems my old Blazer, repainted for a job, has been sold on EBay. I do hope the new buyer is happy and enjoys it.

Seen on Facebook that the new owner has taken delivery of it in Norwich, and is hoping to flip it once they've done 'a couple of jobs'
Available for nearest offer to 10k AFAIK.

Seems trueโฆโฆ. Another role in film. Certainly beats getting broken for parts. Glad I managed to help rescue it.
