PS should you need a set of owner's handbooks for the AX there is a set on ebay at the moment:

That looks like fun Mick :D

If only I had that sort of money going spare...

Daffodil has a full set of manuals and I also have a set of official Citroen workshop manuals for her too :)

Loving the yellow Mini and the Suzuki GT750 'Kettle' 💛

Yellow really suits the Mini..

My brother emigrated to Australia in 1970, he was working for BL when they finally closed down out there and bought the last Mini off the line for his daughter.

His daughter used it for years then left it tucked away under their house for more years until her son dragged it out and restored it, he still owns it.

I have photos of it restored somewhere here, I may have posted them previously but I'll dig them out and post them again.

The Suzuki really is a lovely looking bike Neil, the forerunner of my RF900. However, as a bit of a Mazda fan, I have to say that the Mazda would, IMO, look so much nicer without the bull bars. They may have been a necessary evil for the car's usage but not an accessory I'd fit to try and smarten up a car! :-D

Another one of those ridiculously low mileage cars, where do they dig them up from?

Renault 18GTL Estate with only 360 miles covered since it was registered 01/08/1983 by Guthrie Motors in Brentwood.
