I wonder if they'll take an Astra in part-ex

Those early Huey Cobras look decidedly weedy compared to their descendants

[Taffer]

Eric, that still looks a bit weedy - feed it a few more steroids and, hey presto:



I know it's technically a Viper, but you're not going to argue with it, are you?

[Eric Mc]

I wouldn't argue with ANY of them.

The seats look slightly stained…?

Anyone know what this is? It's my desktop picture but I have absolutely no idea where the machine comes from. The site I saved it from is in Foreign...no idea even which part of the globe.

There is a Cobra flying in the UK. Its owned by the same fella that owns the Huey and the OH6-A little bird.

Now that's my kind of lottery win collection, I've fancied a little bird since I watched Blackhawk Down.
