8 Years & counting

suzublu · 23rd December 2017, 20:18

So, after the annual 75 baiting posts, I decided to to take a look back at what we have, had mine 8 years, done all the mods & preventative maintenance, a lot of beautiful examples in the pics forum, a lot of dedicated members maintaining their cars to the nth degree for shows etc. I keep looking back & thinking, what else is there

So, a few of a 16 year old, forgive my indulgence, & there is nothing else in my mind, to compare. Merry Christmas

Same to you Paul,have a lovely Christmas mate.

Yes I'm doing well. Miss the Rover like mad but have to admit the smaller car does suit our lifestyle these days. 'Needs must' as they say.
