I have been watching new CAR S.O.S.
That Tim still doesn't improve the programme. Shame really. The Lancia Fulvia was a complete shed.
I hope the finished car was as good as it appeared to be.[/i] |

'If your vehicle doesn’t have seat belts
If your vehicle doesn’t have seat belts, for example it’s a classic car, you aren’t allowed to carry any children under 3 years old in it.
Children over 3 are only allowed to sit in the back seats.
These rules only apply if your vehicle was originally made without seat belts.' |
i do wonder about our grand kids, we have taken the then 4 year old a few miles in our consul no seat belts fitted, but in his dads cortina he sits in the front with his seat and 3 point belt, he is now 6 and seems quite safe. |

Sometimes I think he has a feel for classic cars but at other times I almost cringe. ![Very Happy](images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif) |
I have known him and his Dad for quite a few years and know that Drew is in fact a petrol head - also a very shrewd business man.... hence the progs! I really admire his team of restorers - they are without doubt highly skilled, a pleasure to watch in action.
With regard to Carssausage, it has similarities to the Repair Shop in that it shows the human response to objects which have enormous sentimental attachment - I'd vote for it, it knocks spots off the US based ones |
