Too many near me already...and they know me, so infiltrating their ranks would be nigh on impossible :(

Thats clearly a scam. That’s a mute swan, so they don’t honk. These people will train you to be a goose, then kill you for Christmas dinner

Check out the size of the wireless handset.

(And weirdly - when I copied this link, my phone suggested that instead I send it via Direct Message to @IanF :?

I am not sure if the explanation is correct, or whether Vauxhall were trying to provide an answer for Britain’s love of saloons at the time, but aI had completely forgotten (or may not even have been aware of) the Mk1 Astra solution….,

I didn’t think it was to do with making a cheaper car, but more to do with offering an alternative for people who preferred saloons.

I think it was offered before the hatchback - certainly they dropped the booted version pretty early. I remember seeing one parked near a mk3 Escort RS1600i on my way to school back in the early 80s.

I think I need one for my small collection of cars which look like hatchbacks but aren’t 🤣

Always remember to sound your horn during the process of knocking someone (being a bit of a nob) off their bike 😬

He should have been wearing reflective shoes. Driver might have seen him then.
