Ahhh - good excuse to link this photo of old Norm again!

That is a lovely Stiletto!
I seem to think that he was a car enthusiast
He was.
That was 'his' Stiletto - he was picking it up that day. It featured in Hot Car mag at the time if I remember correctly.

It's not my fault, I was out of the country the first time he died so I missed it. Now the bloody lefties at the Beeb have made him die again just so you lot can take the piss out of me. bds.
Stand by, I hear Charlie Chaplin's going to die again next week...

Will this never end...?

I saw some programme where they reunited Norman with his old Rolls Royce. ISTR that he was a bit fazed by it.

I don't care. I managed to get £50 on Shergar to win at 1000000/1 on Boxing Day, so I'm going to be minted.

Bugger, bloody BBC putting it on their front page.

That's it, I'm no longer paying the license fee.
Licence. It's 'licence'.

Typical of PH. Kicking a man when he is down!

More recently (although still a few years ago) I read about a Nissan he owned, where he'd had some body mods down and suspension tweaked. I think it was a Nissan anyway? (certainly a Japanese car anyway) The mag feature also convered his enthusiasm for cars. I'll try and find a link.

ETA - it was a kitted Nissan 200 SX and he also had a Rolls and a BMW 840.

Crikey, even on a jokey Xmas gag thread like this one we get mindless 'kipper comments. Sheesh!
