We'll have a South Wales Mini Meet to celebrate mate, lunchtime meet at Cyfarthfa Castle, we can sit on the benches on the terrace and mumble about everyone going past and then :D I'll buy you a cup of tea and a slice of cake in the excellent tea rooms up there. That sounds like a birthday party worthy of people of our age! :oops:

I have no desire for cars that are not Peugeot. Maybe a C-Crosser (about the only one of these stupid hairdresser's 4x4s I'd be comfortable with buying and only in preference to a 4007 because it's not styled by Stevie Wonder.)
And 3: You have to be old.
You might have me there but how old is old? Is that "not as young as I was" old or "I remember when all this was fields as faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaar as the eye can see" old or dribbling coffin-dodger? :?

Highly unlikely CJ, although as the spring approaches I'm tempted to charge the battery up and start thinking about fixing it up for sale, so you never know! Hmmm, If I could time a repair and a new MOT to coincide with Pugfest.... :supafrisk:

So I read :( Don't worry, I won't get far, what with it trying to fold up around me and the flat tyres... It weighs a tonne too, it looks like the one in Manhunter (before it was on fire).

Scrapped? SCRAPPED?? She's far too good for scrapping! How very dare you!! :lol: :lol:

Nah she's got a fueling fault which developed after I bought the Volvo but before I was able to sell the '6. I was so thoroughly pissed off with it that I just put it in the garage and closed the door, intending to have a look at it 'in a few weeks'. Then it was winter, the season of cold weather, rugby and Guinness, so it hasn't moved since... The time is coming though, my garage needs a new roof so I need to get the Pug outa there!

Speaking of revolting vea-hickle designs, this just turned up in my monthly email from The Toyota Dodgy Car and Dangerous Toy Company of Japan - http://www.toyotaownersclub.com/index.p ... g-footage/

Footage? Most of it looks computer animated to me :frown: Perhaps not enough crash test dummies volunteered...
