Brown glass is very council and low rent, so much so that back in the days of chrome i would often change all the dirty bronze wrongness to nice green tint rightness ! :eek:
Looks like i'm council and didnt know it :mad:

There are advantages having a 320 auto, the flys have plenty of time to get out of the way when they see me coming, makes for a nice splatter free frontage on long journeys :mad:

I'll say it again 4 doors is the way forward, 2 doors are so last year!!!!,its the new trend you know, you can never have enough doors :teehee:

Now what time was my appointment at the mental health clinic :mad:

Unfortunately i have to agree :cry:

Even a fine example of a 320 auto would have great difficulty pulling the skin off custard!!!!
