Thanks for reminding me how hideous the Renault 5 was!

[tonyav]

Yeah, I know, but so were most cars that came out of France in that era.

Mercedes W111 coupe for me, although I do love a black Capri

[CokeTulip]

tony - nice... the Capri is getting votes.

Of course you do, Psybbo !

Yes the Merc is a nice one though.

[shoota]

I'll have the Citroen Maserati please.

[tonyav]

They were nice to start with though, shoota.

[shoota]

That's what I meant T.......I'll have the original!

[tonyav]

And all of the problems, shoota ?.

[Psybbo]

He likes tinkering and trouble shooting!

[tonyav]

He'd have plenty of tinkering and trouble shooting to do with one of those, Psybbo.

[Psybbo]

but it'd keep him occupied, Tony

[tonyav]

certainly would, Psybbo.

[shoota]

Sorry T I thought we were in a phantasy world for a moment. I saw one once outside Buckingham Palace and was knocked out.
Didn't they get them sorted by the end of the production run though?

[tonyav]

Yes I think they did, shoota. Those headlights that turned with the steering were a problem if I remember rightly.
