AMEN to that brother!! :lol: :lol: :lol:
What is wrong with fll rego till JAM gets onto the road? Anton will get his mini fix as often as he needs it and no doubt pops will need xtra tlc to work out those little gremlins that are hiding somewhere. Anton can de-rego pops and put him onto club plates later. I would

well, I have been driving Pops all afternoon (only round the blobk of course :wink: ) and I am all smiles :D

What have I been missing out on all these years. I took my neighbour for a spin and he said he is now converted! :wink: :lol: I even passed a BINI and the driver of that was having a real good look!

Club plates.....full rego.....geez I dunno........ :?

To be honest, I can't afford full rego...and I kinda agree that since he hasn't seen any action for so long he might spit the dummy and be off the road for a while.....so I am thinking Club plates for now. :wink:

congratulations Anton :D

go the club plates for the price you get to drive it plenty enough. if you go the full rego, you'll never finish JAM cos you'll beout driving Pops all the time :!:

i guess the club plates thing sort of is a good idea,
but i agree with gafmo, i am so proud of vivian, i have
been driving her EVERY day, she has been to gosford,
today went to rosehill (on m4) goes to St Leonards
everyday and she Never got hot and has run like clock work
(exceot for the day my brakes failed BADLY and i almost
dinted my front bumper on the back of some shitty
merc....no liquid in the master cylinder!!!! looked everywhere for
leaks, counldt see, put new liquid in bled brakes again and
has been fine.....very mysterious liquid disapearance :lol: )
