Jon,

I think as long as you really laboured the point about the cost difference then your actions were acceptable

Jon Ison - 27/7/02 at 07:39 PM

fuel vaperisation, car ran ok for 10 miles at a time, an ongoing problem he knew he had, thought he'd cured but had'nt....

no disrespect to other guys ere but....

he was well down in mouth after looking around my Blade, n Bryns 16v vauxhaull and realising the combine cost of the pair still gave change from the cost of his xflow....

Speaking as a Triumph owner, I can't get MG owners to acknowledge waves, they drive on past staring straight ahead. I haven't yet had the pleasure at waving at another 7style vehicle from a Locost, but presumably they aren't that ignorant?
