Was it a bit winterish in Winnersh James? That's how I initially read it... :lol:

Seriously, nice spot! One does not see many MK1 'Tinas these days...

Here is a project which has caught my eye, it is a car which I always liked in its day, as a basis for a project it has all the right ingredients for me, automatic, sensible mileage, great documentation, lovely colour, and mainly a bodywork restoration for sure with no doubt engine and running gear to deal with too. If only I still had my workshop!! It occurred to me that there are a few members who might be equally interested and some with the space. :-D

A proper looking bike and a shame it's no longer made in the UK... It does look good though :)
