Where abouts are you then Kurt- your profile is empty?

Hi
Im in Pershore, funny, ive been to Ledbury today to deliver a few pictures someone purchased from me for Christmas. Prince Rupert road do you know it?
-
Yes. Within 1000 yards of my place I'd say. The bypass right by there is the the testing gound for the 126 (and my other cars). I bought a Lancia Y10 from Pershore only a couple of months back too. Super. We should go for a drink in Ledbury some time. I know a superb pub which has a folk night on Wednesdays where the whole pub gets singing. :)
-
you bought the Y10? I tried to get in touch with that guy before the auction ended. I think you must have bought it off him before the auction ended? I like those allot but not many around now in good condition. Yeah im up for a bevy at some point.
-
I had already bought the car before it was on eBay. Thank goodness somebody didn't win it, could have caused upset. The guy had someone else put it on for him as he doesn't do computers and the friend was a bit late in putting it up. I heard about it through the Lancia Flavia Consortium. It turns out the seller is a friend of one one of my best friends as well, so we have since become friendly. Small world. The car is the best Y10 I've seen, although I haven't seen very many- they really are rare in series 1 form. It's also a FILA special edition and a 'Piccola' edition so has electric windows, central locking and other odd Lancia transfers on the outside.
Kurt, folk night is Wednesdays, so your welcome to come around on an evening and join me and my housemate (also car nut- just bought the countries only circuit racing Panda -"Pandamonium").

Hi Lewis
Its funny you bought the Y10 as i tried so hard to get in touch withtheguy who put the advert on, Y10's are particuarly hard to come by but a fila ltd edition aswell?? Lovely. I'd be keen to see it and your mates Panda, ive had three and think they are great, i lived in France for a couple of years and took an old A reg across with me, i covered a massive milage in this time and it hardly cost me a penny although when i bought it home eventually the old tin worm had made its mark in a big way. Have you seen my 126? its now got a 12 month ticket but still needs the clutch replaced, the boys in Pershore who i have used for the other work are great but just so busy all the time, as soon as its fixed ill bring it over, other than the clutch, she drives A1.

I have just looked at your car. Nice model. The car looks sorted also.
The racing Panda may well be road legal soon, so you may be able to go for a spin in it- well sort of; no passenger seats obviously.
