.....parked at Tescos this morning, next to a 1997 Ford Fiesta. Surprised to notice that Ford had used TVR Chimaera side repeater indicators on their 1990s Fiesta. Bit of a cheek ......though I suppose it does give them a certain added style.

You spend far too much time at Tescos - you sure you're not actually stacking shelves? hehe

Go to Waitrose then - you get a better class of single moms there...

You'd want to get out of the house frequently if you had the grandchildren living with you......aged 4 and 16 months. No volume control, no off switch. Tescos is just an excuse to go out, and take the TVR as it has a suitably large boot.

But Waitrose is a good idea. Its 6 times further away.......

When my resident chef and bedwarmer, Mrs Bonkers, is away, I have to admit that I do tend to turn to Waitrose for my catering supplies.........seven different puzzas week one, repeat in a different order week two.

Didn't the Chieftan tank also use TVR front indicators? smile

Always thought Vauxhall were the thieves re the earlier Chimaera rear lights.......thought they could get away with it on the Cavalier by mounting them upside down......bit like an Australan stallion, now I think about it.......not that i do very often at my age.
