ah btw, if yours had the six dial dashboard (Speedo, Revs, fuel, Oil, Temp and Volts) then its definitely a GT

so it was a 4 door 1300GT? that must have been cool..... ah yes, that was fun, that escort is mine actually... a '67 1300GT 2 door.... I think one of the first lot of mk1's produced. Mechanically quite good order, but the rest of the car needs a lot of work....

so, you bought Gunat's GT? thats great, he takes super care of his cars..... and i must say this one looks MINT! great buy kim!

what? was yours a 1300 GT? i thought it was a 4 door 1.1?? or have you owned two escorts? btw, what was the number of the 1300GT? and what became of it eventually?

Could someone please enlighten me a bit more on this permit scheme? anywhere we can get details about it for example?

Many Many Happy returns of the day mate!

ah yes, the adventures of the legendary mazda....those were the days

now THERE's a thought..... you could well be right.

Pray Tell, what sort of "notice" did you want to stop on these Nissans? Oddly enough, our family has used both an FB12 and an FB13 for a considerable amount of time, and they gave no issues at all..... not even a hint of this "corrosion you cant stop"..... any car, even your beloved toyotas, WILL give trouble if not properly taken care of, or if the previous user had screwed it up, and then slapped a new coat of paint on it in the interest of selling Perhaps you got caught like this?

Ripper, lost cause mate.... This character probably imagines that the GT-R is a trim level on the nissan sunny! hes a brilliant example of why toyotas have such a huge market share in sri lanka, I've never come across anybody else with such a ridiculously thick skull.....

yes, indeed..... what IS your point with this thread?

yep, May 2008 also be filled with high octane, tyre smoking automotive experiences!! MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A VERY HAPPY NEW YEAR!

lol thanks guys, but it was just something I found elsewhere and thought was funny...

now THAT is a good idea......dilan_rs, you should seriously think about doing this

Repeat post

1.25 as in 1.25 Million? thats a bit on the high side if it is...... Anyway IMO, the Carina is a Much better car than the FB15..... you might want to sell it and go for a later registered one If the number is your biggest issue..... IMO, i'd just keep it..... its a really great car.

That would be MADZ, our beloved (?) boss..... a.k.a the admin of this forum

And not forgetting the 200bhp "weekend toy" tucked away in your garage eh?

Things I learned from the Movies 1. If being chased through town, you can usually take cover in a passing St Patrick's Day parade - at any time of the year. 2. All beds have special L-shaped top sheets that reach up to armpit level on a woman but only waist level on the man lying beside her. 3. All grocery shopping bags contain at least one stick of French bread. 4. Once applied, lipstick will never rub off - even while scuba diving. 5. The ventilation system of any building is a perfect hiding place. No one will ever think of looking for you in there and you can travel to any other part of the building without difficulty. 6. Should you wish to pass yourself off as a German officer, it will not be necessary to speak the language. A German accent will do. 7. The Eiffel Tower can be seen from any window of any building in Paris. 8. A man will show no pain while taking the most ferocious beating but will wince when a woman tries to clean his wounds. 9. When paying for a taxi, never look at your wallet as you take out a note - just grab one at random and hand it over. It will always be the exact fare. 10. If you lose a hand, it will cause the stump of your arm to grow by 15cm. 11. Mothers routinely cook eggs, bacon and waffles for their family every morning, even though the husband and children never have time to eat them. 12. Cars and trucks that crash will almost always burst into flames. 13. A single match will be sufficient to light up a room the size of a football stadium. 14. Medieval peasants had perfect teeth. 15. All single women have a cat. 16. Any person waking from a nightmare will sit bolt upright and pant. 17. One man shooting at 20 men has a better chance of killing them all than 20 men firing at one. 18. Creepy music coming from a graveyard should always be closely investigated. 19. Most people keep a scrapbook of newspaper cuttings - especially if any of their family or friends has died in a strange boating accident. 20. It does not matter if you are heavily outnumbered in a fight involved martial arts - your enemies will wait patiently to attack you one by one by dancing around in a threatening manner until you have knocked out their predecessor. 21. During a very emotional confrontation, instead of facing the person you are speaking to, it is customary to stand behind them and talk to their back. 22. When you turn out the light to go to bed, everything in your room will still be clearly visible, just slightly bluish. 23. Dogs always know who's bad and will naturally bark at them. 24. When they are alone, all foreigners prefer to speak English to each other. 25. Rather than wasting bullets, megalomaniacs prefer to kill their arch-enemies using complicated machinery involving fuses, pulley systems, deadly gases, lasers and man eating sharks that will allow their captives at least 20 minutes to escape. 26. Having a job of any kind will make all fathers forget their son's eighth birthday. 27. Many musical instruments - especially wind instruments and accordions - can be played without moving the fingers. 28. All bombs are fitted with electronic timing devices with large red readouts so you know exactly when they're going to go off. 29. It is always possible to park directly outside the building you are visiting. 30. A detective can only solve a case once he has been suspended from duty. 31. If you decide to start dancing in the street, everyone you bump into will know all the steps.

The omega missed nomination on this list (though i was sorely tempted) by the simple fact that my mate wants something compact..... It is a rather nice car though... haven't driven one myself, but have ridden in a few, and liked them..... by the way, Omegas are ridiculously cheap now aren't they? any particular reason for this??

Im not entirely sure I like your choice of emoticons when making your point, The last one especially could be considered slightly offensive..... as to the subject at hand, I bow to your superior knowledge on SLIA, as I have not dealt with them. C*y*i*c* also did it in a matter of minutes, and threw in a years worth of life insurance as well..... anyway whatever said and done, I don't personally agree much with using third party insurance on a car which you've put a lot of work into, especially if it's going to be driven often. But if its only to be a weekend drive, then third party will work just fine I suppose

well, C*y*in*o wanted a copy of the revenue license when i was getting third party cover done for my escort...... and if you read the post carefully, you'll see that I have said, "If you're going to get it Fully insured" when talking about taking the vehicle for inspection.

Edit: Sorry, misunderstood who you were replying to...

Anytime mate
