I said to him I'd always wondered if I'd fit in one so he told me to feel free, but after what seemed like five minutes of contorting myself like origami I've decided that Countach ownership isn't going to work for me. They aren't the most glamorous cars to get in and out of..... ;D

A few from this week. MINT Mk2 Fezza. Can't be many of these left now. Tidy Ashtray Cab. Red Oxide FTW. Just needs some pinstriping. ;D Love Minis on Starmags. Couple of tidy Splits gassing up at Frankley Services southbound this morning, obviously headed for Newquay on the RTTS. Happy memories!!!

Just cos something is good for you doesn't mean its good for everyone - for example Marmite does not make good Dog Food.

No photos, but on recent trip down to Chepstow for work I saw: 2 mint looking XR3's on a transporter Early Mustang Frog-eyed Sprite Model 'T' hot rod Modified '02 BMW Masartati (poss. a Quarttroporte) on a truck, looked like it had been dragged out of a field Racing Lotus Elan on a trailer ...and... spot of the day (for me anyway)... a Chrysler 180 or 2-Litre!!!

... the only injury I sustained was a bumped head when I let the seatbelt of without realizing the car was upside down and that's not really the car's fault.
