Oooppsssss....Wartburg or Renault?


P

Wartburg, cheeky booger. Renault, yes but which one?? it is rear engined too so i imagine handling is tricky. I have the classic car bug now for some reason, i think i am about 68 inside but 18 on the outside :D

I was going to get classic insurance until i realised i have to be 21 and the car over 10 years old. Nearly bought a Clio Williams about 2 weeks ago, again, slight restoration needed such as very small rust on the arch and some interior work, a mate agreed to go halves, i had the highest bid of £2500 for 3 days until the last 2 hours and the car went for £3100. If i had bought it my dad would have had heart failure.

Just had a look at the 105e, what a pu55y mobile that is.

Mighty pleased for you Frank; what an ordeal.... Any joy recovering funds from the other idiot?


Anyway, new section, loads of photos feeling the love for it already....

Mind you having seen the quality of work and dedication Enzo put into Florence you have a tall order on your hands.... Starting with the name?

They certainly were Frank...Remember seeing an old Top Gear on rally....They asked the great unwashed what the most successful rally team was......Most said Ford....No one said Lancia..........I did.....

I dont think Ford have made a truly great car, the Cosworth models were OK but they were flawed in so many ways. The Capri is regarded as a good car and so is the mk2 escort.
