Sunday Lunch Anyone?
Just wondering if any Midlands based 406oc members fancy a pub sunday lunch one weekend?
We'd have to pick a central location commutable for everyone to make it fair, but who's game?

An explanation is needed.....
"Crumpled" refers to the fact that I drove it into the back of an Escort van early one morning while my brain was still asleep in bed, and it now needs a new bonnet, bumper and grille as it's looking a little bit twisted up front!
"Multi-coloured" refers to the fact that the previous owner (my dad) managed to somehow dent the rear passenger side door in against a concrete bollard and I have replaced it with a door from a GLX, unfortunately in completely the wrong colour!
And "Daddy chariot" is what my friends affectionately call it, as in their humble opinion it's a car that is only suitable for middle aged dads, or fit female taxi drivers from Warwickshire.

Heh it's mostly the same colour, just appears to have more touch-up paint on it than original stuff. God knows what the last owner of the bonnet did with it... And it ain't exactly flat either
Still, it's a bit less f***ed than the one I had to replace - the catch on the body is dodgy and didn't close properly, leading to a slight accident at 70mph. Dented my roof where the aerial is mounted too
