Chip got me to take some french dude out for a burn through Callis (sp), topping 130. The poor lad couldn't speak english to tell me to slow down; just as I couldn't speak french. I think he was a little shocked, cos they can't do engine mods over there. :lol: The trip was a good laugh :+:

I've got a fiat panda for sale if your interested?

Its sitting in the back yard doing nothing, been there for the last two years.

F Reg, 1.0, white, very economical, clean bodywork.

only problem is it needs the footwells welding up, theres a big hole in the passenger footwell from where the window doesnt close properly and the waters got in. Easily sorted

Only want ?500 for it if your interested

stu, i think he is being serious about the panda! Not sure when france will be yet. Prob going over in a couple of weeks to get some fags. not on the train though, it's boring. Much more fun revving ur engine inside the ferry! sounds like d-day all over again!

Breeny - cant make april 3rd, was going to go to the belgium trip but that is the same weekend so i couldn't go to that either,

anyothers going on?

I am thinking of going over on the 3rd april in the morning, coming back late afternoon and then going to mean street cruise. Not cruising in france, just going over to get a bit of duty free if anyone is interested in that?

Breeny
17-03-04, 02:10 PM

karl Rowntree
18-03-04, 12:33 AM
