I am quite new, my name is Michael, I have a bmw with a damaged door and a 1998 s1 Elise with OEM rattles, aftermarket rattles, and other bits and a new windscreen. I live in East Lothian. Most recently I ended up replacing the whole exhaust system just to fit a wideband lambda probe so I could fit a catalytic converter and get through an MOT. In the photo below, a stone chip protector is missing because a puddle on the motorway washed it off.

I went to one of the ldc meetings in Falkirk once soon after I got a red s2, but I wasn’t sure about everyone there although some seemed normal.

I like this ‘truth circle’ format

What a marvellous range of machinery listed above. We're all lucky people.

I'm Tim with:

- 2023 Toyota Corolla - entirely dull hybrid spec but actually quite decent for dull journeys
- 2003 Elise 111S - still hanging on despite having me drive it since new
- 1930 Riley Nine - improbably still occasionally actually starting and getting places. <https://classiccars.brightwells.com/vie ... hp?id=6326>
I’d love an old car like that, amazing!

Don't let the "normal" ones on here put you off. They are few and far between :wink:

They seemed to have sent it to Pete for software testing. The brakes switching the radio off is novel but not ideal for a radio 4 fanatic.
