    And then I waited at Derby Railway station, (in a similar fashion to the Grand Hotel, 'it was empty, cold and dark'

    [​IMG]

    I got on this train,

    It was cold and looked like this inside

    And then he gave me some pies...

    And then I drove home in a December 2003, turbocharged, six speed manual motor car with plastic front wings and tailgate, aluminium doors and a spectacularly nice dash.

    Outside it looks like this...

  10. Sadly it's very dull to drive, but it's a gloriously comfortable place to sit and listen to the radio whilst in yet another traffic jam.

    Just to clarify, this is not me being clever with fill in flash, this is what happens when you open a door.

    And the clock is not photoshopped, it really does light up in lilac.

    Sod lowered cars, fast taut German motors and Gangster Chic - Comfortable, soft riding cars that cost just a fiver are the future.

  13. I like it well worth a fiver, but I'm a bit concerned about the pies, Chicken Balti with a use by date of 10th of November "Perfect for Santa", that 'ill teach him, I asked for NOS not Klokker panels ;)
     
  14. Only a bit concerned?

  16. Hoorah, just ordered a set of tyres to replace the Chinese rings of doom that are fitted, and the engine warning light has come on!
     
  17. Your German cars in close proximity may cause it to go permanently into reverse;) Park it beside the Jag it'll feel safer.
