There's Only 2 things to be ashamed of


I have only ever had 1 French car, a 405 STDT bought on a whim, it was a realy nice looking example. But it came without MOT and it failed it's test and I could not be bothered... So I sold it for a loss.. Should have put some effort in as it could have been quite a good car for a few years.

Next thing I know the Plod are on the phone askign about it as it was dumped! .... Not My problem oifcer, V5 gone to DVLA for new owner..
