Topic: Scotch whisky protected against 'inferior' copies

I definately was Simon, as I said I was drunk, stupid and a lot younger than I am now.

Driving an E-Type, they would have probably escorted you home just so they could sit inside it.  A neighbour of mine was restoring one although he moved before he completed the work.  He was short of a bonnet the last time I saw him.  But he let me sit in it and drool whenever he worked on it during the summer months.

They were a beautiful car.

[Sandra]

Mine still is Rik, even though its now 45 years old 

[Simon]

Never been reversed...

Lots of TLC?

[Sandra]

Not as much as it should have had lately Rik, It hasnt moved for 3 years now 

[Rik]

Shame. I used to drool in the engine bay - they were just so magnificent. We'll have to get Sebby, who is into car detailing, to pop up and give it a birthday.

[Simon]

I would imagine it could be worth quite a bit now, if it's in good condition. 

[Rik]

Is that an offer, Simon.

[Simon]

To clean it?  No, but I know some great Polish hand car washers. 

[Rik]

To buy it. Luch...

[Sandra]

I turned down £35K for it in the late 1980s, before the recession and house price crash soon afterwards.
I doubt its worth half of that now though as even when house prices recovered, classic cars didnt get back to their previous levels.  

This is a photo of it from june this year for insurance purposes, it needs a good clean though.

[Simon]

That's a shame, Sandra.

[Rik]

Sebby's your man for the cleaning.
