Yellow 993 Turbo S in Clitheroe before
That was mine. Had trouble with it today. The security fob batteries were dud (probably the originals since 1998) and I went to Tesco, Boots, Lloyds Pharmacy, the Market, DJP, Timpsons, Dawson's and nobody had a replacement. Eventually had to call my wife to bring in the spare key! Anyway I got home eventually. FalconWood said:

Nice garage, I think I've seen a few of your other cars out and about, was following an S65 from Longridge towards Hurst Green the other week and can't imagine there are that many of them about! George29 said:

MGBs were (and still are), notorious for their rust bucket reputation, more so than any other classic car so I've heard. The worst example I remember seeing years ago was a rubber bumper GT that was stood outside the back of an house (not sure if it was left there or being worked on), and it looked in a right state, so bad that the bodywork would've likely crumbled if touched. These days someone would've tried to flog the thing in such condition on eBay for 2 grand, when it was only worthy of the scrap yard.
