old cars
« on: December 28, 2009, 07:51:04 pm »
hi folks merry christmas. ave not been on here for a while as no longer have a gt4. but always wanted to get another. but keep wondering what ever happened to my old 185`s. i had a grey narrow body which i sold after a con rod came through the block and went on fire on the m8 heading to a banzai day at crail. i sold it to a guy in wales and never heard of it again, just wondered if it ever made the road again. reg was b18slc.  i also had a black 185 which i fully rebuilt fitted a 205 engine and spent ever penny i hadon it untill i decided to swap it for an rx7 with a guy from southhampton, i heard he blew the head gasket and its been laying in a garage for a few years now. wish i kept this one.

Still got the white 165 Gordon, also have a nice example ST162 auto as a daily kick about but mainly use Danie's Mondeo, cheaper to run.... ;D
How about you? Bet you have a people carrier now....lol
