Enlighten me regardless.

There are loads of Z3, Z4, SLK Kompressors around, but I had ruled out a 2 seater on account of you having more than one child.

And my search was 2,500 - 3,000 ‘convertible’ ‘Manchester’.

Not a bad idea, going for a classic car though.

I owned one new so agree, very unreliable but great fun as a second car. No rust where I lived. Not much rain either. California desert.

Still does not make me a boomer grease monkey you fucking moron.

Backspit is a complete schmucklehead and he spends copious amounts of time on this site confirming it.

Funny my dad uses it from time to time. Makes me laugh. He said it about 2 weeks ago on a vid call and I started calling my 1 year old Lab puppy that. Sort of caught on. My wife calls her that now too when she does something stupid, like Backspin

Nice one Tax!
The Jeremy Clarkson of TD.

Yes, I can certainly see similarities

But you've never intended to buy any of these cars.

Still, it beats pics from the fruit carving festival in Crewe, or a Metro exclusive on the latest dogging scandal in Stoke, I guess.

Nice quick edit there after you decided you can speak for all discerning parties and declared Tax a wanker on behalf of us all.

Ciz been up to his old tricks!
Tut, tut.

Decided to narrow the search down on the advice of TDs Jeremy Clarkson, might even be an investment!

I feel like a convertible in the UK is pointless.

Tempted with the Jag but that's going to drain money.

My wife's got an old Merc and I reckon she has to take it to the garage at least once a month for some.bullshit electronic reason.

Totally disagree with that with the long light evenings from now til October.
UK is the biggest buyer of Convertibles in Europe.
OK we get a lot of rain but it's great to have it when the sun does come out, unlike Spain where its too fukkin hot. And there's a heater inside when it's cold

How's your roof down, wind in your hair electrisc scootering around Bangkok going?

Saab - because people will think you are an Architect even if you are not. Also I seem to recall that the advert on the telly showed that driving a Saab is like flying a fighter jet. Noise is probably the same as well.

Second hand cars here have risen her by 30 percent.

Any cabriolet for 3k, especially now it's Spring will be a shed.

Jaguar Land Rover is a subsidiary of Tata Motors Limited (Company based in India). Saab may be Dutch owned.

He had an x-type if I remember correctly.
