Somebody help me.

This happens every now and again, I get a very strange want for a BL car. That Ital on ebay with 300 miles on the clock has triggered it now. I want an Allegro or a Maxi, or an Ital, or a Marina, or a Princess. I know eventually I will just give in. There is something about them I find very appealing. Can't put my finger on it though.

Does anyone else get anything like this from time to time?

I still want a Dolly Sprint.

I still have a soft spot for the Triumph TR7, but would love a TR5 or 6.

Saying that, the 75 kind of takes away my want for any other car now

Of course, because I get fed up having to take a car to the garage that needs to get hitched up to a laptop! Give me my Morris Minor back! With a basic tool kit you could take it apart and put it back together again. EG. Clutch change was a doddle, do that on a modern front wheel drive!
