OV9

Merry Christmas everyone. The overeating and drinking is well underway. Take it easy out there.

I think Boris is running on empty these days, and a Samuel Butler quote is all there is left to give him any solace. "Any fool can tell the truth, but it requires a man of some sense to know how to lie well."

Being a liberal leftie champagne socialist I've never once considered voting Tory, but then again, I do like cheese and wine parties...

It's a terrible thought to have, but this whole virus thing could result in an overall increase of the average IQ when all settles down...

I'd like to make it clear that any overtaking cyclist damaging the side of my car when I am clearly signalling and in the process of turning right will be reversed over.

Well done. There's probably a small clause in the forum rules that dictates you have to buy her an MX5 now.

Hi, this is the first time I've looked in since posting. I've not really got a downer on new cars, (mine's only a year old), but I have fears for what might be available in 5 years when I might want something interesting to replace it. The only thing I'd have on my current car from my last one (981 ...

Recently it occurred to me that for ‘us’, the best cars of all time have already been designed/made. I Don’t want to appear pessimistic, but am I wrong?

Bad news: And on the Cayenne. £600

Thanks! I feel better about my £495 now.

You might think I'm biased, but you wouldn't regret it.

I quite fancy the two buggies that are for sale, and the Hudson...

That black buggy looks lovely - I've had two buggies in the distant past. If I had more space and money...

Did the people in the caravan survive?

I wouldn't be able to pull off a Monaco but it will be a great match with your car 8-) Got no idea what you'll be offered for the Bremont but as a guessing game I'll say £1900. I was happy to get £2500 against the Monaco Gulf, which I'll get in 6-8 weeks. Watts at Derby got the business - a very pl...

I'm hoping you are not too far out there. I won't say which way though in case someone is monitoring this thread!

Well said Carlos. The naysayers are just lacking in confidence!

I’m aware of the ‘personal taste’ aspect, but I’m old enough for that design to mean something to me. Anyway, it was my birthday last week and it’s Christmas soon, so I don’t care what you think really…

Sounds good. Thank God they made it 15cm too wide or I'd have been reeled in!

How much would you expect to get as a trade-in allowance for a well cared for Bremont Alt 1C/BLK (all packaging, papers and original receipt) against a new TAG Monaco Gulf. It was luring me onto rocks like the sirens this morning in Nottingham and I'm gong to see it again and be told the trade-in al...

RIP Sir Frank.
