Ah, I thought it was some strange place that has old pictures of cars biglaugh

Mine was a Riley One-Point-Five, blue with red leather... bought it for £5.00 in 1972, petrol was 6/6 or... 3 x gallons for a quid and tell the pump-attendant to keep the change wink

Hi,
My first car was a 1970 Hillman Hunter 1500dl. This was in 1981 when the test was passed.
Not a very good car, but it did all it was asked to do. Teaching me how to drive in my first
two years.
Andy..
