I covet this car so much.
I'm hoping V2 will be a considerable upgrade, if I ever get round to it, and would help clear some space too 😂

Tempted to just chuck the bits from the black one into the white one as they are over a couple of weekends to get it useable, but know if I do that I'll probably never do the proper build I want to.

Given how many cars you've got on the go aren't you tempted to part with the E30 ?

I wasn't aware how valuable they had become.

I had never appreciated quite how many vehicles you have Harry. It's like Harry's Garage.....

Do you keep them all at the house?

Several are at home, but unlike jobbos link are all hidden from view except which ever one is parked at the front ( usually the lupo) and whichever is last up the drive. A few are scattered randomly around the countryside 😂

E30 will go one day. I'd love to get it tidied up and get one last summers use out of it as although I used it lots I never did the driving adventure thing in it. At the moment it's only costing me £100 a year to insure so would take quite a massive crash before I lose out.

No pictures of the Leon wagon but plenty of the old departed G60 Golf :cry: Image

I'm pretty sure V2 has been in planning since we went to Snetterton in it.

That was....long ago :lol: the Metro is silly fun though, far nipper than it has any right to be.

I'd post a picture of my car, but....well, I don't want to make everyone else feel bad about their life choices, y'know?

Oh, what the hell.

Yeah, realistically it's nothing fancy, but it does what it needs to do really, really well and doesn't try to bankrupt me while it's doing it, unlike a certain yellow car I could mention which is composed of about 40% rust, 40% regret and 20% hilarity ;)

I like how you’ve continued the tradition of only taking terrible photos of your Mundano.

Honestly, it's just not a car that I think about photographing.

The Puma was worth taking out to the sticks for something like this:


Because it actually merits it visually.

I get not having a good picture, but they’re al actively abysmal. Like you’ve made a real effort to make it look as bad as possible.

It's more that every time I think to take a pic of it, it's dark out and I only have my smartphone on me - a bad combination.

It's not the sort of car that makes you think "I'll drive it thirty miles into the countryside because I know this great little leafy glade that it'd really work with in a picture", either ;-)

My wife's new car:

We both loved the M240i but with a 9-month old black lab in the family now it was far from ideal. Neither of us are big 1-series or 3-series fans, so jumping over to Audi for a car she's always liked seemed a natural choice, and all the better that the most recent iteration of it is knocking on 400hp and 3.7s 0-60...

Will we get an update on the value of GAP insurance ?

Nice change, it's wise of you to steer the missus away from DRWD ;)

Hows the black Lab doing ? Our sock eating, door and cupboard opening pest is 7 years old and still thinks he's a puppy - but welove him to bits.

A friend has a black Lab about the same age and it is exactly the same. Can dogs have learning difficulties as I'm convinced theirs isn't wired up right :D
