And to think...that's what I originally bought my 343 for, to banger race!
Funny how you get attached to things quickly

1981 343 DL(2.3l), LGM 194W...Now dead!
1983 360 GLS(2.0l), DHG 458Y...Now dead!
1981 345 GL(1.4l), NNU 980W...Probably dead!
Is there a common link here???

LOL Well no, the wiper is there because they have destroyed the right wiper...

Oooo I'm still angry when I think about that 360 GL, with wonderful dark red seats like americans cars...

To be fair, looking at the cars they've destroyed....they were all wrecks before they started. I can't see the harm in destroying something with no real value, which is easily replaced, and which isn't at all rare or cherished.
What is sad is when something unusual is destroyed. I have a nasty feeling both a 66 and a 164 are about to be crushed at my favourite scrap yard

And the other half of my bodykit was crushed with the car (note: before I got hold of it!!)
Would you like a red interior Aymat? I see those in the scrap yard occasionally...
cheers
James

Note the rear view mirror in the yellow car!
Even a mirror of that size could not prevent him from being crushed.

Are you sure that's the rear view mirror?
