Thanks Dave, completely agree. I doubt a single one of those tacky German cars will be on the road in 20 years.

Most of them are probably diseasel Jim so they will be outlawed hopefully! :wink: :D That's if they make it to 20 years old without being written off by boy racers who don't know what indicators are for or the engines have siezed through lack ofg oil changes because there's no sump drain plug!

The Vitesse will be going into hibernation soon so took a chance on the weather and went to the classic car night at the Ace Cafe.
It was cold and the threat of rain made it a quiet one.

When you said it was a quiet one Jim and i looked at your first pic i thought "That's quiet alright - only one there!" :shock: :lol:

Glad a few more turned up so you weren't a "Billy No-Mates"! Was it a good night in the end? :? :?: :wink: :D

Haha yes it wasnt much better later, I get there early to avoid the rush hour, means waiting around at the cafe but better than 2 hours in traffic. It might have got busier later but I scarpered at the first sign of rain.
