Hi all,

I was driving from Harlech to Liverpool yesterday (what a drive!); Going up the A55 near the Welsh/English border, there was a used car lot to the left of the road (heading north) which had a veritable fleet of eighties 'classics' for sale. I spotted a mk1 Sierra and an 80s Escort, didn't have a chance to see anything else or the name of the garage. I've tried Googling, but I can't find anything, does anyone know this place, and do they have a website?

They probably won't have a website but will be able to fax you a list of their stock, with a big white stripe running up one side.

(To the youngsters on here faxes were something we used in the olden days to send information before e-mails).

..yes, with phrases like 'STEREO CASSETTE DECK''ELECTRIC AERIAL''POWER STEERING!'

Or maybe I'll have to wait 'til Thursday and buy Auto Trader.

You were in North Wales, those cars you saw were pretty high end and qualify as "nearly new" up there.

Sorry that was the only link I could find to it on my phone.

I drive past the place regularly but have never been in.

Do you know what it's called? That link makes no sense to me!

Its Regal Pawn (as seen on tv) they do have some good stuff in at times, just a few weeks ago I went to look at an Austin 2200 but couldn't help but notice that everything was very overpriced on sale car wise.
