Hi Folks!

Just randomly thought us Scots should share some info about our cars - and share good tips on keeping them in good running order.
My pride and joy is a Mini Cooper S in Electric Blue with 17 inch alloys and a chequered flag up the sides - well I think it looks pretty cool!
Pleased with the Mini service package - free servicing for the next few years? Excellent idea - don't you think more manufacturers should do this?

I have a Saxo VTS, not all that exciting if your not driving I know!
Usually between North Lanarkshire, Ayr and Linlithgow.
My Dad, a Red 328GTB much more exiting for not driving but I don't get to drive it!(Yet!!) also around Linlithgow area.

Hey Steve (W) are both your cars 'dodge viper blue'?

Thinking of that for the new one - did noble charge a mint for the colour?

Hi William,

It's a '93 Indigo all - alloy Plus 4 T16 with 28k on the clock serviced by David Gilbertson at Thomson & Potter. I just don't drive it enough (it had 23k on the clock when I bought it 4 years ago!)

Allon Whites have a similar (red) one for sale @ £17,750

www.allonwhite.co.uk/used-cars.asp_Q_make_E_morgan

I'd take a couple of grand less! Can e-mail pics if you 're interested.
Good Luck with the Rochdale !

My proper car is an Alfa Romeo RZ, which I drive round about East Lothian when it's not raining.

Also just bought a GTV V6 to replace my Golf as a daily driver.

------------------------

Steve (C) Dont know if the paint codes are the same but the colours are close. "Azure Blue" is among the standard M12 colour range so no extra charge from Noble.
