Apparently Jed Clampit (alias Pacerpete) tried to tow him away from the pod with his Panzer but his diff locked-up and the rear wheels wouldn't then turn :?

In comparison to the RAC/AA (sorry can't remember which) that £350 is a bargain as they wanted £600 or therabouts :eek:

Excellent show, bit like an 'Anti-Gaydon'! Plenty of proper stuff to look at, not just shiney rep-mobiles.

Did anyone catch that E36 with the bodykits, the spoilers, the... other bodykits, the other spoilers... looked like something out of a transormers cartoon? I only caught it on the way out but it gave me quite a turn, it did. 8O

You just have to say hello. Don't expect people to talk to you as they dont know who you are. Say hello, talk E30 or general crap and you won't have a problem, Walk around say who are you, chances are you were chatting to them on the forum but don't know what they look like.
