Sorry, was pre-applying the club discount.... ;)

I agree with everything just said, and if someone thinks it's worth that, then they'll buy it. But I'm looking at it from the point of view of us cynical SEC bums, who also happen to know he was...

You dunnarf know some stuff, Guy. In fact you could write a thesis on it :)

And the Morgan link to Lancia is....sliding pillar front suspension!

Those Mog 3-wheelers always amaze me when cornering hard and you can see the spokes in the wheels bending....wonder how often...

Worth every penny of £55K, sure! ;)

It's got a gearlever that's obviously out of something else, a set of rusty GAZ shocks, and a 12V Alfa motor. Now if it had a set of Nitrons or similar, a...

That's interesting. I wondered what all that "250GTO gearchange" blarney was all about, so now it's obvious the seller doesn't have a clue and he's just bunged a price on i and is hoping for the...

Robin, as you know, "evil never sleeps", which includes "2nd-hand car salesmen" :)

Some interesting and fab stuff there! I wanna know if the pic of the Vincent was just before it went into the...

Missed this post somehow. We were invited to display at last year's Do but haven't had an invitation this year....or not one that I've seen - I've had a few emails sent to the Chairman/Secretary...

Friend of mine bought a Monte new in 1978 from the Chester Lancia dealer (think it was Red Rose Motors?) and used to let me drive it a lot :) It was an S1 so had the brake servo that only acted on...

Pete (Phubb), it was after, and I left the flesh on there as a warning to everyone not to get too close...well, till I got fed up of the cloud of flies in the garage every time I went in, then I...

Wow Jim, that's some thin glassfibre on that there Ultima - you can see right through it when the light's right! :) It's no wonder you're not driving it much cos just the trip to Stoneleigh and back...

Then, in 1990, I found out Caterham Cars were building a series of "Prisoner" Sevens. I'd already had a Lotus 7 S1 which was fun, but it had no roof and I'd got no garage, so it ended up being...

I too can't post pix of my current car in Andy's thread, cos I've not got it yet (but soon, very soon...!) Therefore, here's my kits from waaaay back, starting with...

....my Allora, buit between...

Or to pay for years of chiropractor treatment after bending down so much the thing's that low...or new knees if he kneels

Patriq, you don't really need that 3rd hole. The two already there will do the job just fine!

....well, apart from the ones that're faster, yeah ;)

Thinking I might get a gig organised by Zimmers 'R' Us, to include a celebratory/demo lap of the care home car park?

Guy, I know there was a previous version of the club, but that pretty much disappeared along with the old website etc. and Ian had to create something from scratch. So I kind of see them as separate...

Stratos-y Type Peeps,

I noticed recently, while reading posts by you lot, that the "join date" of the, er, shall we say, "more senior" club members, only(?) goes back as far as 2011. Having only...

Chris, sorry, meant to reply to you but then forgot!

I don't know if we've still got any of these floating around and right now we can't check, as our Regalia fella isn't available. Once we get...

All sorted and msg sent to ya to say so. As for deleting something....hmmm.... ;)

Have you never heard him referred to as "Duster Dolby", the whirling dervish of Halloughton (pop. 25)? He's unbelievable with a tube of Shake 'n' Vac.

So it's fair to say you're a closet Stratos fan....with all those models in the world's biggest closet (I've seen it, in other people's houses it'd be called the Grand Hall)

Hi Keith, welcome to the gang!

Congrats on ordering a kit - when's it due? Hope you've got an understanding Sig. Other cos they won't be seeing much of you once it arrives....actually, maybe...

No, but it does "grate" at times...or it has over the last 4 years

Can you imagine driving a Strat Zero on the road? You'd get sick of people driving into you because they hadn't seen you cos...

Now why would you swap the standard flat-6 Porsche motor for a BMW V12?? Pain in the a*se to engineer, pain in the a*se to subsequently work on. Other than that, good luck to 'em! Just gotta hope...
