    "Today I started a new thread because now we have to have a new thread for everything (like bargains from different countries because I hate having to scroll past 2 posts per day)"? :P

    yeah, and then somebody posts to an old thread (old pics from factories... I don't know...) and all of a sudden some random mod is like: "why ressurecting old threads"? Ideally closing the thread afterwards.

    genius ... haven't seen anything like this anywhere on the internet in last 17 years. Only here.

    Both WX trade plates, RHD - Aussie/Kiwi more than Jap I'd think - triple wipers weren't standard in Japan or US or elsewhere

    Do you mean Lulea in Sweden? I flew into there two weeks ago and went on up to Kiruna and Kemi in Finland. Saw quite a few W124's up there.

    I drove from Rovaneimi up to Tromso and back - great countryside, but that was midsummer :cool:

    They seem to keep the old rust bug away fairly well - regular underbody wash/waxoil I wonder :confused:

    No pic - was my brain on holiday/in shock ? :rolleyes: - 66D GT40 up at Cherrywood yesterday, BEFORE THE SNOW HIT. Problem was, guys were asking if it was real or a kit http://www.tornadosportscars.com/ :confused::confused::confused:

    More likely a kit as any real ones would be worth a lot of sheckels , too much to bring it up to Cherrywood on a snowy day


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 475 ✭✭11wingnut


    Yes Lulea in Sweden Lots of old 80's w123 and older mercs plenty of 1970 Volvo 144 and 244 and saab. The building behind is a local motor museum.
