I thought my 96 lx model was as basic as you can get, but this is from a 97, reminds me of my old 106 xnd which had the clock in the dash too.

My dads first 406 had that. Those early basic 406's were spartan in comparison to the executive d9's

Just tell everyone it's a rare rotary engine that revs to 12,000 rpm, at, mid-day, like

I remember when my dad had the clock in his 406, i had a dream that there was a secret rev counter underneath just waiting to get out.

Why i am telling everyone this i dont know.

My dad had a Morris 8, (series E), for which he made a heater matrix out of hydraulic pipe threaded through sheet steel fins & clamped together between 2 sheets of 1/4 ply wiv lots of holes drilled in them. It was 'attached' to the under-dash parcel shelf & skinned many a knee or shin - it was about 10" square by 5" thick and didn't seem to make a blind bit of difference due to lack of air circulation / fan.
But then he was a mechanical engineer.....

Reminds me of my 106

Who'd like to compliment me on my parking?



And, yes, that is actually the position I left it in

Did you call a taxi to get you to the curb?

[Doggy]

Good idea leaving the roof open so someone can 'post' the missing wheeltrim

[STALLED]

My mates Merc 180e has a clock - I joke that it's for timing how fast it takes to get to 50! Slowest car in the world!
