2 days to find these two cards in the Optimax Challenge of which there is probably only one in the world but can't blame a chap for trying. Happy to trade, have millions of all the other cards.

Maybe today should become a holiday and use it to fill up with 2 pounds at a time of Optimax to get as many cards as possible. I am sure the Maz card is behind the counter of the Shell garage on Fulham Road.......

Whilst on the subject of of being anal over handing out the trumps cards - I did ask the garage chap last week for 2 packets and he said NO - so I said if I went and put another fiver in could I have another packet and he said YES. I questioned him on the feasibilty of just sitting by one pump and doing a pound at a time - his response was - "If you want to".... What an arse.

I think he can!...I think you will find that you have to send a stamped self addressed envelope to a department within Shell or the promoters of the Top Trumps and they will send you a packet FOC...

I managed to collect the whole set plus loads of extras in one day!
Then again Im still on the honeymoon period of TVR ownership so thrust a nozzle in its rear end regularly at weekends.

I guess it depends on the garage then 'cos FFG came home last night with about 15 packs and he only filled up a small petrol can that we keep in the shed for emergencies!!

Still - if anyone wants to sell that Mas Coupe card let me know... I'm sure Maggit's got it you know, he's just not letting on! :windupalert:

Bring on the Maser and the XKR for me too please. The pile of duplicates nearly reaches the ceiling now..i knew there was some benefit in owning a gas guzzling TVR. I got 5 packs yesterday for a £10 purchase..smiled nicely at the female checkout person!!

That's right, I'm not letting on. Wouldn't it be nice if a PistonHeader was one of the winners?

When Shell send me the Masser GT card!



Or when my Lotto numbers come up.

Would still be nice if a PH'er won one of them though, wouldn't it?

Hi Maggitt

It sure would be nice if a PHer won it - d'you think they'd take us all for a quick spin?
