Would have been quite amusing to get it back, but I've heard bad things about the guy I sold it to. Bit dodgy apparently :)

Luckily I'm picking my new one up next weekend... :D

Yea, the guy you sold it to used to thrash it repeatedly and has been known to take it to motorsports events.............

Such accusations... :lol:

Also, Rupert 'I don't care about my tyres'.... I'm sure a quater mile run puts less strain on the car than road rallying ;) Ask Chris... :P

Interestingly the saloon seems different in character, its quietness tends to make me drive like grandad, though I suspect that wont last long.

Look, do you want me to get a Peugeot :P :lol:

Oh and I forgot to say, nice find Carl - I'm still not sure on the looks of it, but worth it for the extra lighting :)

There's a one grille like that in a red 360GL in this one scrap yard near me. I think I'm gonna buy it even though I'm not going to put it in GLT. (I'm not a big fan of the grille's looks) Maybe someone will buy it or I'll put in in GL or then I'll just keep it because it is fun to collect rare parts. :lol: That red GL also has snowcap. I'll buy that too because guy who owns the yard don't want many euros for small parts like that. :P I have already bought the glove compartment, clock, parcel shelf, interior light, spoiler for windshield wiper, one MacPherson and a head light out of it. :D

Good work Carl, it arrived safe and well in the end I see. Yeah, very dodgy that bloke Steve, nearly as dodgy as the bloke you're getting your 360 from so I've heard! :P

And I hope Steve won't be the one with a caravan, beard and pipe by Sunday's meet! :shock:

It's the pub car parks after the rally that does the worst.... though erm, it all was a bit sideways way too often last night.

I managed to get another grill last week Carl, glad you got that one, means I can put this on Fake, and use that for rallying from now on!

I've found one too in the meanwhile. I think i actually like it on the car. I did not mounted it for real because it does not fit right. But i have to take a close look for that.

These grills are like buses. You wait ages for one the three turn up at once!!
