I think it's time to bring the words bonk, bonking and bonked back into everyday parlance.

My brother ran a V6 155 for a number of years, on the original mirrors throughout 😀

That with a green carpet would be my ultimate 33.

Not 100pc sure, but I don't think so. My S3 16v has squirters, but AFAIK only some S1s got wipers.

Fiat Tipo action for #FiatFriday.
Wish they had fitted headlight wipers to the S3 Alfa 33...

They really should have put trellised roof bars on these.

Fiat's smiling because he's had his winter Super Resin wax this morning, and I'm smiling because the Alfa 33 has got a clean ticket, this afternoon, to take him to his 33rd birthday, next summer, and beyond.

In about 1994 the pub landlord used my Sony Mars Bar to call the pub to 'prank' the barmaid.

Max Power in Albert Square Classic 'enders 2009.
Whilst I've always been partial to a saucy back box etc, I'm glad I was born too early to appreciate this scene tbh.

Someone's parked a VW ID bus opposite the house, and when I walked into the lounge, I thought it was the ambulance from The Cannonball Run.

What is that bloody fantastic Cannon number pad thing all about?
Don't remember them, although I had Cannon branded mats in my Alfasud...

This gorgeous Colt has just appeared on Farcebook marketplace for £3800.
It looks bloody lovely. Absolutely no flags for rust on mot history.
If I had a disposable £4k I’d be on this like a rash.
