Never try and argue with an idiot. They drag you down to their level, then beat you based on experience.

Hi all and thank you for your relies and warm welcome
The car is a manual, though i have just found out it was originally an auto
I am based in Nottingham so fairly central
Thanks once again guys your replies are much appreciated

Thanks Will that's a great picture, i hope to have her looking that good again soon
Hi Roger, yes she has indeed returned home, i actually went into the factory show room in Nottingham 30 years ago when i owned my 5a and i remember drooling over
their show car and thinking how much i would love to own one, its only taken 30 years but hopefully worth the wait
