    Is it sad that I'm just settling down to watch 'Operation Petticoat' (which is just older than me)

    Happy to say XJS was my era Saint :thumbsup:
     
  4. Jules - I'm sorry, but I've lost your address, please imagine that you just heard a card from me clatter through your letter box.
    When Wendy gets back she'll be able to open it and show you what a lovely card I would have sent.

    The same goes for anyone else on here that's into xmas cards whose address I don't know either.

    Wow, how uncanny, our virtual cards must have been like ships in the night passing one another.

    All the best from our home to yours.

    Okay, here's another to guess at.............. I don't believe they were sold in, (or that there are many in) the UK.
    But I feel that had they have been, they would have had some 'Serious Potential to' have become a well known classic.

    This one may test you.......... I believe the manufacturer ceased trading in 1976...

    Google makes it easy. A second or so to find the little SP2. And the DAF 66.

    Yes it is.... Volvo took over after Daf folded.
     
  16. I'd forgotten that, my mate had a 66 marathon, I think they may have been volvo badged.

    Spot on, it’s a ’79 dash with non-original gauges. :thumbsup:

    It was the smiths gauge that gave it away.

    But the Smiths gauges are not original to the late dash.;)
