Negita43 Posted February 11, 2018 Author Share Posted February 11, 2018 Thanks = My apologies I thought it was a pic! I notice in the intro that they had a "frogeye" (Austin Healey Sprite) This was my first "sports car" cost me £950 in 1961 ish I've also had a Volvo P1800 (The Saints car) And a great car but not cool - a Citreon BX GTI 4X4 My last was a Celica GT4 Carlos Sainz (limited Edition). Sadly now I drive a 25 year old Toyota Corolla!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
