Well that is unusual, nice, any more details?

Lovely colour is that. Well done on another one saved

Lovely colour. Hardly a bad car from what I've read on its MOT history.
What does annoy me is the ongoing advisory about the undertray. So what?
What the tester can't see can't be tested as they are not allowed to remove any parts. Worth saving all day long.

The owner of this car is a great friend of mine, He rescued this one from a driveway locally. The history proves much money and care has been spent keeping this. I was really chuffed Gavin bought this, and has been mainly impressed with it. I have a few items to attend with, but generally a lovely piece of history looking great.

Sorry off topic but what's wrong with pagid brake pads? I've got them on my taxi and find them fine lol, done over 7k since they were fitted in October lol

RogerHeinz57 · 10th December 2016, 15:51

I have the impression that an attempt to bait me into a totally pointless argument, obvious there is an element of boredom within a certain camp, which is a shame really as we had a great meeting today, but fortunately many can rise above this.
BTW, who makes Pagid products and or owns the company ?
A surprise may be in store for all the Pagid supporting team........

TMD Friction it appears.

They're part of the Nisshimbo Group which includes the Mintex brand.
They say they've been in business for 135 years.
The holding company is based in Germany.

Am I supposed to be excited about this John?
