dilip122S: That's a lovely Amazon. I drive around SE>Central London quite regularly. I'll look out for you. Do you take it on the roads much, and in which part of London?

Here goes-

1969 volvo 131 - totally standard, used most days.
1970 volvo 131 - far from standard, used for rallying & for fast fun.
1968 volvo 131 - semi modified & doing my head in cause it wont run right!
1965 volvo estate - 2 litre, converted to auto & currently in a state.
1966 volvo 122s - breaking for spares, anybody need anything, has a superb dash!!
1970 Rover P5B coupe, looks like an amazon on steroids, a little more comfortable & has that lovely V8 sound.
1949 Ford F2 pick up truck - currently under restoration, slowly.
1940 Chrysler coupe - totally origonal (looks like a barn find!) but mechaniclly perfect.
1939 Lincoln Zephyr V12 Coupe - the pride of the fleet, very rare & beautifull
1997 TVR Cerbera - totally mindblowingly awesome! slightly quicker than the modified amazon! 0-60 in 4.2 seconds & apperently will do 180mph, not with me in it, it wont!
2002 Kawasaki 1500cc Meanstreak - just been to portugal & back on.
2002 Royal enfield 350 Trials - totally crap bike, but looks good.

I really do need to thin down the collection, but love them all. It's allways easier to buy, than it is to sell.

Oh, forgot to mention the tractor, 1970 nuffield 4/65 ! sad I know, does anyone happen to have a manifold & waterpump for it!

I drive my '64 122s, its my only car so reliability is a must. I always wanted a car my age and I fell in love with amazons back in the early '90s and finally bought this last year.
