I’m on my fourth 8 now and loving this one currently 54 knees creaking and back aching kitted the garage out with a four post lift to help when i am working on my classics
i was trying to work out how many cars I have had but it’s a bit scary I started at 13 with an old 1955 Austin restoration and never really stopped. Petrol is in the blood I’m afraid.
