) when they saw one of these...http://www.carclassic.com/html/DL78.htm

Would be a good opportunity for folks to bring along some syuff to go in the yearbook, which I haven't forgotten about, despite the fact that I've had no PM's to remind / hassle / irritate me

Or just the usual crew and one extremely wealthy PR company, willing to put a small percentage of it's profits towards a bit of fun for the lads.

What about an Delta S2? Probably the most capable of all Group B's, until the Toivenen incident.

RS200? Supposed to be a real handful on the limit

BDA MK2 Escort? Oh yes. Might not have the stupid power or pace, but an exhaust note to die for, and well within (?) our (assumed) budget

Flattery will get you nowhere at all mate.... On the other hand, a banana yellow FQ300 bribe might....

Get a 6r4 with twin turbos.

You can all have plenty of brown trouser moments then.

Looking for something a bit more 'plain vanilla' trousers I think mate. At least, that's what Al's bank manager (Katrina, I think she's called) recommends....

I thought we were looking for a '1 careful elderly lady owner, never raced or rallied, used for shopping trips only...etc'...

From the picture below, I don't think this was owned by an 80 year old Gran on her way to Sainsbury's.. Do you?

Looks more like Dave driving Dazza's car on a quick 'can I have a qiuck spin to try out your PPP?' test...

Nice find Al, looks very tidy indeed.

Are we arranging an impromptu to discuss this further (the subject, not necessarily this particular car), or has there been enough discussion already? Is it time for action?

Depends on the money we'll each be putting in & number of people in really..

I'm happy with £300 at the moment.. Not great, but better than £0.

With the 5, that'll obviously give us £1500 for which we need to get the car & trailer?
