There's a mod for that issue Jim
That'll work Matt :D Parking in my road may be a challenge though :lol:

When walking past my local (closed) ATS I have wondered what has happened / will happen to the equipment from all the closed branches.
As I get older I think a lot about the hereafter - I go into a room and then wonder what I'm here after.

Inside every old person is a young person wondering what the hell happened.

That type of equipment usually ends up in a sale somewhere, I monitor a lot of the auction sites but not all so they can slip through my scanning. Supreme Auctions in Sheffield tend to get a fair chunk of that market but on my visit there I was very unimpressed with their collection setup so I avoid them generally. :)

That looks to be a good one. Doesn't look expensive to me.

That looks very nice, I know the car, it is in great condition (or was last time I looked at it)

A failed business I guess - a sign of the times?
