I had a cabriolet one of those in my first year at University. Not the twincam unfortunately but it was still popular with the girls wink

I've justed passed on a Mitsubishi L200 4WD truck with every extra and rear hard top. 2015 on 31,000 miles. Circa €15,000.
I would get punished if I took the money from long term savings,so we did a mock up loan that would put us into nearly €300 for 60 months. It's cheaper than pulling out of savings.
Anyway it was mine if I wanted it.
I've never owned a Mitzi before and the max tow weight is 2,750 kilo and in 4WD it's 3,100 kilos.

It's only just enough for my towing needs.
I like to have extra when it comes to towing.

So now I'm back to looking fora land cruiser etc.

We have just looked at a Citroen mini bus van that we could use for camping and for Madam Ms work travels. And also at the same garage a very nice Iveco tipper truck!

I'm now going to think about selling a few cars to part fund the above!
Fecking heck me heads spinning!

Yes I have 5 sets of 20vt 16s plus about 3 space savers all on 4X98.

I'm going onto 17s with the track coupe due to GTA 330 calipers going on at some point. I'm hoping I can use my 16s with spacer's for my new rainsports for wets. Time and more investment in the braking system will see. Toyo888 is my tyre of choice mostly on track.

A conversation in the Bobbers kitchen......
I picked up a knife from the draining rack to cut some cheese, as I turned around with it in my hand with my hand over the blade for protection Mrs Bobbers was behind me,spotting the knife she says, "Hhuuuhhh you were going to stab me!!!!"
I respond, "what, with my hand over the blade?"
"Yeah, you were going to do a magician's throw at me!!!" rofl

I would have made a joke about meat daggers, my missus would have looked at me baleful and I would blow any chance of actually using it.

And that happened tonight.

Home now and I need to get to bed.
Had a meal at a Brazilian steakhouse, where they just keep bringing more meat on huge skewers and cut off as much as you want. It is unlikely I will need any breakfast.
