Thats it,the 16v we saw,on our way home from Jezzies.
Dont suppose you saw us going the other way? I did blow my horn,but I was in an S-type Jag with Andy in front of me in his "new"valver.

Hi, thanks for the warm welcomes!

The road by Capitol Bingo in ST. A is Alexandra Road, and my parents live at the bottom of Victoria Road, just over the dbl rndabout.

Funnily enough, I'm also familiar with the blue BX hatch that's been mentioned too, admired it myself a few times...

I got this white BX from a guy in Essex, got great history, drives nice, hoping to get it chipped in the next 6 months (I had a red one that was chipped, and boy was it quick) and it needs a new back box (looking at possibly a performance one!), apart from that my aim is to keep it looking very standard (maybe wheels but that's it!)

All electrics work lovely, it's got a C2 alarm with motion sensors (very handy for ST. Leonards!) hydraulics are good all round. 89k.

Did a deal on a black P2 with Air Con in August and paid by cheque but the seller kept it on the market and sold it to somebody who offered him more money. Was on holiday in ireland so nothing I could do about it!

Oh, well, A/C adds weight and slows the car down anyway :P
