    My first one was a 13/60 too but the estate version, KWE 280J. Long since scrapped i think. I then had a 1200 Estate, FTF 496B (also scrapped i think) and then the green 1200 saloon that i posted the photo of, MML 130C which is still going happily in Ireland but with a new reg plate. The first...

    Pros and cons of having kids - and not having them

    Definitely not true in our case. My Son slept through the night from 3 months old onwards, never gives us an ounce of trouble. My Daughter however is a hurricane in a human form. She is coming up on 3 years old and has never slept through the night, not once. She brings devastation wherever she...

    World Cup Winner?

    I'll say this for Southgate, he seems to be the first England manager in a long time that actually looks like he wants the job. Maybe that might just count for something

    Ominous Marc McNulty tweet?

    All valid comments and i know it won't affect the outcome of whether he stays or goes. As i said, i would hope that the fact he is willing to joke about a transfer means that he knows his future is settled.

    Ominous Marc McNulty tweet?

    No, it's not but if you were looking at signing him and you saw that, would it make you think twice? Perhaps it doesn't, maybe clubs wouldn't care but it doesn't exactly help him does it? My kids are too young for twitter but if they were, i certainly wouldn't want them to see one of their...

    Ominous Marc McNulty tweet?

    Might actually work in our favour. Clubs pay attention to what players tweet and post on Facebook, they can't afford scandal. Might just put a few interested parties off. Also, you'd hope he was smart enough not to make jokes about signing for another team unless he knew his immediate future was...

    Well, obviously I have and did! It's a great hobby but it is also frustrating, time consuming and expensive. If you have the time, space, patience and funds then go for it, there is fun to be had but go in to it eyes open.

    Dolomites are smaller, they were part of the family of cars underneath the 2000 range. In modern terms the Dolomite would be a BMW 3 series where as the 2000/2.5 would be a 5 series. The one in that picture Isn't Mimosa, that's Inca Yellow but they are not dissimilar. Triumph had multiple shades...

    Yeah Slate Grey, with Dolphin Blue interior. All the manuals and experts will tell you that was a combination never offered by Triumph but we have the original bill of sale which proves it's all original. Slate grey a very rare colour though anyway, not popular at the time it would seem

    I think the battery tech has got to improve and become cheaper before they genuinely go mainstream. Will be interesting to see what happens in the next year or so as the first wave of Graphene batteries become commercially available

    Turning up early and getting it wrong!

    You're right, definitely funnier than being stabbed! :facepalm: I love football but cannot imagine for a second caring about it so much as to be driven to want to stab a rival fan........ I've been late for matches before but usually just because i've massively underestimated the travel time...

    Spot on, just made for one year, 68-69. Was intended to launch in 1966 but problems with the injection system delayed it. Now a massive PITA as its mechanically very different to a standard mk1 2000 and the rear floorpan is different too. Yet it's also quite different from a mk2 PI because they...

    Herald was my first car and I've had 3 in total My '65 1200 that I bought in 2003. Had 2 Herald estates prior to this one but don't have photos of them to hand. This one i sold to a guy who shipped it to Ireland and its the only one i regret selling, should have kept it.
