    You should move up my way... every tenth car near enough is either a 90 or a 110. In summer time there's a MK1 cruses around too, now that's a treat.

    Ohhhhh, the one to get. Shared a TD5 90 with my brother for a while, fun times the V8 must have been... fun :), in the long term the clutch was too heavy for him so it went that'a way.

    the clutch was horrible so i redid mine to use a brake vacuum assist unit (the joys of a hydraulic clutch) and it became sooo much lighter.

    I've being driving a 90 at home since I was 11, and have had a TD5 as my car in London since 2013. Replacement clutch, front seat and a rollbar make it absolutely fine for anything less than about 4 hours.

    Its also great for London as no-one dares drive into you, especially if its covered in mud.

    Guy I bought my beat from had bought a 70's disco. Said it was a huge difference how other road users reacted when they saw it coming the other way down narrow roads

    Yup that big bumper mass of folded steel was a great deterrent, and the toe-hook on the back a fantastic anti-shunt device...

    Today, in a supermarket car-park in Wellington, Somerset, I saw a Nissan Cube. No camera so a stock photo.

    Took a detour via the Porsche garage next to Düsseldorf Airport last week and while we were technically on the forecourt we were still in the car.

    Saw, not one or two Porsche spyders, but four. A baby blue paint job on one was amazing. Also a classic 911. Absolutely beautiful.

    I regularly see a guy commuting in the opposite direction to me in a red Nissan GT-R.

    Sadly, I didn't have time to ask :p Although, the thought of carjacking crossed my mind...

    It is indeed!
