I was told to PM sonikk4. I guess you could do the same. They did inform me that you can only do this once, unless there are very good reasons.

Yes if you ask Neil (sonikk4) Davy unless someone else has the correct spelling already it should be good

Why do people do that. It's not like he became a nice person when he passed away.

Strange question, but how much would by Austin Westminster have cost to tax in 1965?

RedRuby
Have a look at the link 64 £15, 66 £17 so presume £16 for 65

Dead and rotten. Runs out of MOT this month so could not be asses to do the work needed to fix it. Last time I drove that is when we went to that show in Alton.

Balls. I'm busting to get mine back on the road, too. Got the money to get it fixed. Just need the time, really. What's up with it?

So, Mini owners, you thought your cars were bad in crash tests, here is the 97 metro, with its new impact bars and airbag...which mine doesnt have: https://www.bing.com/videos/search?q=rover+metro+metro+1.1+crash+test&FORM=HDRSC3#view=detail&mid=39ECC7F8B9AC6F639C0139ECC7F8B9AC6F639C01

That's why the car was put out of production. They spent a fortune on that facelift, sent it to Ncap and it scored the lowest result ever recorded. Minis are much more crash worthy. Even a Tata Nano is better in a crash than a Metro!

Vinay-RS
wow and a tata nano isn't legal is most places cause it is so unsafe.
Dec 20 2014 06:50 PM -
MiniGrin
It is a tad scary to be honest XD you see how bad the 100 faired, mine is the earlier metro without air bag, side impact bars, strengthening etc.
