Default The DRIP is back on the road

Today our 340 passed the MOT and being now insured, MOT'ed and taxed it is back in operation, Why 'The DRIP' I hear you ask. Well the reg no is H201DRP and that gives you water and a drip. First registered 01-05-1991 and showing a genuine 30,660 miles here's looking forward to another 32 years.

Thanks, Cam. Car is currently with 360dood (elder son) and will be used as a local runabout rather than his bigger V70 diesel.

While it was off the road recently the paintwork has been hit by tree sap etc and is now being 'attacked' with Autoglym resin polish by said son. He does a good job of detailing his cars. He used to run it to school back in the day until two of his 'school mates' hit it with eggs and flour. Although the school car park was covered by CCTV the school would not release anything to be viewed for the vandals. They would not even pass my details to the parents of the known perps so that clean-up costs could be apportioned. Net result was two sixth year pupils having to deal with the police. The parents of one boy paid up half of the costs but the other parents refused to offer anything. Back then the car was mine.

Once Martin has worked his magic on the car I will get some pics from him to post. here.
