    I just had to get one.....

    ... a car, that is.... after all these years [5 years !! ]

    Just the odd off road day in Dan's landy, they wont insure me for road use ... wonder why? probably because I'm well into my 40's now !

    Deal sorted, price agreed, no going back this time. FYI... It's a grey import.. rear engine... RWD, still managing over 200 horses ! . pretty nippy still. and....... it has those cute ickle rear drum brakes [ remember them ]

    guesses on a postcard, or here.

    It's all true I tell 'ya !
    A bit more info may help you. a little less cryptic.

    it has over 200 horses.... 204 to be precise.
    it has rear drum brakes......
    it is a grey import.. as in.. it's grey [manganese grey] & it's not made in this country, yawohl ?
    ignoring maufacturers figures...... it is a sub 7's car.
    it is rwd rear "engine" ???
    It' not diesel......... or petrol ! It's powered by fairy dust !!

    Dammit! As soon as I saw 204 on sub 7s, I was coming down here to guess at the ID.3! Nice though . Without going down the Tesla route, this would certainly be on the leccy car list for me.

    I know. Haven’t looked at the site or had a VR4 for years but for some unknown reason decided to have a look at CVR4.
    When I saw the old fella’s post, I couldn’t believe his latest purchase or resist commenting.
    Probably won’t be many years before all us petrolheads will have to concede and buy an electric car and of course a last hoorah V8 ��
    Have emailed The Vee to see if he’s still around but no reply thus far.
