Not been spending much time on my Clio. priority was getting the Elf throught the MOT. So did a couple of small mods today. Thinner number plate. Still legal size font and spacing. Latest ebay bargain. Two top Samco hoses for £40.00 Buy It Now. ;)

Forgot when my MOT was due and managed to get an MOT booked this morning. Usual place we use couldn't fit us in for a week and the local dealers have closed. They are now a Hyundai Dealer and I have already had a row with the pushy tw*t in the body shop , so wouldn't use them at all. The local...

Went to Breamore House to show my Elf as wanted to blow the cobwebs away and celebrate it sailing straight through the MOT last week. Then decided to go to Bournemouth for Classics on the Prom. So meant quite a lot of mileage and the car seemed to be better for it when I got home. Just a few...

Anyone up for a guess the original car heavily disguised by a great bodykit. Usual rules. Whoever gets it right posts the next one.

My son took me out today for Father's Day. We took the Elf to Beaulieu for the Hot Rod and Custom Drive In. Pulled up and blagged our way in as part of the show. Had a great day. Got loads more pics but not sure if these cars are to everyone...

If you're not bored of them yet here are a few of mine Dan Thanks for bringing all of us together. More yellow goodness Actually thought the 200 wasn't as ugly in the flesh as I thought it would be. Still not sure about that nose though. Was taking a picture of...

Spottede today as I was waiting at lights. Racing Blue with no stripes. Was in the firm's bus so did not wave.

Just a few of the other types of cars at Combe.

Thought that I would mark my 1000th post with these photos from my son's mate who was in my son's car.

Spotted at about 12.15 lunch time. Tidy silver 172 with green diamonds on the wheel centres. We both waved.

Following on from my previous thread took the Elf out this afternoon and also took the camera. The new roof rack New front badge New carb. Must get the old metal polish out again. Period stickers

Just a few pics from tonights meet. Was really good meeting up with everyone again and was really great chatting with everyone. Thanks Kerry for arranging it. The donuts never fail to draw a crowd.

Need to get this off the drive so put it on Ebay. Tried registering on all of the Metro forums as well. Would make a good basis for an engine transplant' http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&item=200328434341

Been taking a few shots today as it was so nice out in the garden. Then came in and took some of the mental cat that we have. She finally managed to get into the Fish Tank. Shame it was empty.

Being a slave to fashion have never been happy with my beesting aerial. Got my Citroen C2 VTS stubby this week and put it on today. Also just got in on Si's Tow Eye Group Buy and also fitted that today. Now I'm going to have to wash the car.

Spotted this morning at about 8.40, a Trophy CA05***. Looked like it had a roll cage. Gave the old casual thumbs up but no response.

I know I need my head tested but finally my son has been able to drive my car. He took it to work this morning and sent me this pic. He gave it a full valet and detail with scotchguard treatment. Perhaps he can now get rid of the dent in the rear quarter.

Spotted at 4.30 this afternoon, Racing Blue travelling up Hill Lane. I was the idiot who flashed his lights and waved. Thought it was Kelly lol.

Got dragged along to this by my son tonight as was unable to attend my local Mini Meet. Was impressed with the turnout and some of the cars there were top quality, plus some others that you think shouldn't be there. Should have taken the 182 so that they could see what a real car looked like.:D

As the title says fair few Minis attended this. Wished I'd taken the Elf as would have been put on the main straight.

Just a couple of pics after a minor clean today in preparation for going to the Goodwood Breakfast Club tomorrow.

Driving through Titchfield this morning saw a LY R26 parked outside the Shell station. Looked gleaming:cool:. Was it you?

As you may know been looking at getting rid of the missus' old Metro cabrio. Well it's demise was due to a blown head gasket last week. Spoke to my mum who was changing her car this week. Decided that she would rather give her car to my missus rather than trade it in as it was worthless as a...

Found this yesterday and couldn't believe the price. Must be something wrong somewhere...

Looking through Pistonheads and came across this. Is it for real? http://www.pistonheads.co.uk/sales/815018.htm

The boy is back into the Dub scene again. He's got his Polo back on the road and has bought a new set of rims. Always loved the ATS Cups and got these beauties. Then he had issues with rubbage so bought the 165 tyres and stretched them to fit the 195 wheels. Can't wait to see them on the car!

Let you out from Northland Rd into Archers Rd at about 3.40 pm this afternoon. I was in the Work's bus (silver Zafira). Noticed the new Cliosport sticker in the rear window. Were you on the phone? :nono:

As the car was defrosting on the drive this morning took this photo.

I bought my son one of these for Christmas and he has been trying to fit it all day. Keeps coming up with Device Error every time we connect an iPod to it. Anybody else have one of these and if so had any problems similar. The manual is useless and doesn't explain error codes.

Parked next to this tonight but was in my wife's car so didn't have any leaflets. Was this the one that Inchcape had for sale a few weeks ago?
