I doin't want to be a FB messer, or deal with people's attitudes when they get arsey about it, I'll just wait until the right one comes along.

Cheers for thinking of us mate. What I'm finding is there's loads for sale ranging from £250-£1000, they all say "good" or "strong" engine, "pulls well" "got vids of it running" I've got vids of mine running a pulling well but it's still f*cked, none of them come with a compression test or any...

This is a good watch, I love old boys like this with mad pre war contraptions, I saw on the main Goodwood show he drove The Beast of Turin from his house to Goodwood, hammered it round track, then drove it home, legend!

Yeah that Thomas Crompton has some cool sh*t

I think it's an antique shop next to a boarded up newsagents.

Easily 15 years ago, probably more.

Thank f*ck for that.

Definitely interested in both of if tests well. Where do you live? I bet it's the Highlands of Scotland knowing my luck.

Filters and me said the same thing, such a nice understated looking car.

Can you compression test them like that?

How can a brake pad not be road legal? Surely if it stops the car and passes the MOT then it's fine, I've got PBS track pads on the Clio and they're like hitting brick wall even when cold, best brakes I've ever had.

Mine was still rapid even with a f*cked engine, even today once it was up to temp the engine ran a lot smoother, other than the misfire. I'm starting to think after 20 years they're all f*cked unless you spent £5k on a nice one.

You should keep it then if you're using it to rebuild another. I might have to do the same with cars, buy another to build one good one out the two.

Seeing everyone's Clio's last week at CSF made me miss mine so much I decided it needs to be resurrected, even with a f*cked engine it can't just sit there rotting. (I also needed to weed the concrete) Battery was utterly dead despite me charging it every month I had nothing but relay...

I'm trying to fix one of my iPods, it works when plugged in but not on battery. I bought a cheap £25 repair kit and I've swapped the battery, but it looks like the connector has come away from the circuit board. Is this meant to be soldered on? Because it doesn't look like it's ever been...

I bet one of them dies before it's finished.

His autism is his secret weapon, unbelievable levels of car control from that lad, he's a absolute machine! He's also like an excitable little puppy, I love him to bits already and I've only known him for two days.

I'm already starting to forget who's face and name goes with their avatar and username.

You need a Trilby or Boater to keep the sun off your head. #hatwanker

He handed it to me too, as soon as I felt the weight of it I thought, this thing's worth more than car.

The depth of field has made the car look like a toy that Cub's about to pick up and put in his pocket.

Fair play, it's been so long since I've had a car I liked I forgot people take longer routes just to enjoy driving.

YT content?

It took my 5 hours to do a 3 hour journey last time because I trusted Google maps making me avoid the A55 and go the scenic route that was even slower.

Is M40 to M6 Knutsford, then do a left into north Wales not quicker?

Depends what they want in relation to an MOT failure R5, I get wanting to do a real barn find but you might be paying a premium for moss and dirt. Unless it's a very early one or rare spec, that's a different story.

Did you tell them they can keep the plates?

Did the cat sit on your keyboard?

Literally a wild Unicorn.

I bet more people have seen UFOs flying around than have seen F40's in the wild that wasn't a car show or club meet.
