    Red Bull (5541)

    You could still put at least one, if not two, flags on it ! Regards Styria BTW, have you still got that car - it looks just so good. On reflection today, all words of wisdom. Do you still have that car and any progress on it ? Regards Styria

    The new ML

    BenzBoy, thank you for those details. I am a little surprised at the age of the car, but I am sure that you would have taken all that into account before you planted your hard earned cash. I bought Cappie (my Captiva) with 112K. on the clock, and it is now up to 215K. It's been a great car and...

    Old car - new Technology

    That was a great post of yesteryear. Unfortunately, E200K. spat the dummy when he got pulled up for something, and it is also unfortunate that we lost Tony 66 also a number of years ago. He was always good value with his knowledge and experience. That Pioneer Radio is still in Gleaming Beauty...

    Ferguson Four wheel Drive

    Very few cars that look better than a Jensen Interceptor. Many years ago, I had the option of buying one for $12K. - so that proves that it was long ago ! Why didn't I buy it, or perhaps a Lancia Flaminia Saloon at $3K. at the time - maybe money. The Flaminia had a badly slipping clutch, so no...

    Car of the week

    It's reasonable looking - certainly for its age. Unfortunately, the interior is probably its biggest downfall. Dirty and time worn carpets, accompanied by stiffness of the carpet pile and binding, and certainly the interior, in general, needs a thorough professional clean up. It just looks dirty...

    The new ML

    Well Benz Boy, you are certainly going about things the right and meticulous way and the car should prove a real asset to your various activities. I will not be so impolite as to ask you what you paid for the car, but I would be interested in date of manufacture and mileage travelled...

    W126 comparison

    I think that C107s assessment and experience with the W126 is "Golden". Plenty of hands on experience with his two cars, but one should bear in mind that he puts a lot of personal mechanical restoration into his cars, and he does not shy away from placing the cars in the hands of experienced...

    Gleaming Beauty - First Baby Steps

    Well, I have just read, or re-read, the thread from go to whoa. First comment - I can't believe that it was started thirteen years ago, and I admit to having little satisfaction for all the work I carried out at that time, and also at other times on account of many. many hours spent at the time...

    Restoration of my P5 Coupes

    You see, just goes to show what even a "dumb cluck" like me can be capable of (holding deep breath). As can be seen, that Mark 3 thread was started just short of three years ago. Furthermore, as can also be seen, much to my chagrin, that preciously little progress has been made since that...

    Restoration of my P5 Coupes

    A lot of information has already been posted in various threads pertaining to my Rover 3 litre P5 Coupes. It is hoped that further threads and posts will present a clearer picture of what the hell I have been up to ever since I was twenty four years of age - a neat fifty years ago.....and I...

    A big WOW on the way home...

    Thanks Patrick. It is actually my niece, my oldest boy's daughter. Richard has mentioned previously, say twelve months ago, "Dad, if Julie ever sells the car, give me first offer, as it would be an ideal first car for Zara" (his daughter). We had a belated family get together celebrating...

    A big WOW on the way home...

    Patrick, it's heartening to know that you have such a high opinion of the Jazz. Believe it or not, you are in tune with the "loud mouthed" guy in the States with the most watched videos but no one seems to like him on TK - would you believe I just can't think of his name, but I like most of his...

    Fabulous Dance Music - the sort that was played at the Spanish Club in Goulburn Street in the City. You won't get much better than that. Michel, need a few more of those. Regards Styria

    Hi BenzBoy, I lean towards the INXS video. That's a great song. The second one - takes me back to the Rock 'n Roll area starting in the late sixties. Bring on Bandstand and Hendo ? You bet. Sound is great - I have a 5.1 system attached to my PC and I am able to enjoy some really great...

    Sparx - a group of four sisters that hail from the New Mexico region in the States. I discovered them about four to six weeks ago and, believe it or not, this video being played is the first one I came across. Being the silly fool that I am, I was quite smitten and looked for other videos by...
