My last one was metallic green (Y plate) with a chrome nudge bar with spots. Loved it. Didn't love the electrical fault that would randomly not let it start, but then, that's why I have a silver one !

Got to say I liked the looks of my 05 plate, liked the chromed style headlights and grill with the dark blue upper body and grey mouldings.
Pity the car was a bit of a money pit and rot box, PX'd it in March for a Skoda and saw it up for sale at a local garage for twice what I got for it but that is no surprise. The 05 plate was meant to replace our 1996 but didnt and the old one is still going strong. Cant wait to get my t reg back on the road, wife aint too happy about me wanting to get it on the road and run it for a while but I reckon if I get it fixed up I deserve to run it around for a while. |

Funny the way wives never seem to "get" us.
I have similar conversations about guns and shooting! (She's a treasure really, I'm a lucky bloke!) (Thought she walked in there!) |

Last month there was an early short wheel based hard top LandCruiser that had been refurbished, and that looked great.
My 5dr isn't quite classic or vintage yet, although I suppose I could class it as a custom because I changed the rough gear knob for and "eight" ball! |
