Clints cars

Post by CLINT »

Cannot be bothered typing about all my cars yet again on yet another forum. You probably already know them anyway.

1983 Triumph Acclaim. This is technically owned by my other half. It was her daily transport for a year or so but then it's been painted and looked after by me in the 5 years since. Not been on the road although it would pass an MoT no problem.

I also have three Citroen ZXs, a Xantia and a couple of Peugeot 306s. Oh and a Peugeot Partner van

And a Nissan X Trail for everyday. But I prefer to take the ZX, it just drivers better.

To think, the Renault 16 was launched the same year the Wolseley 1500 was discontinued.

Nice fleet. I remember seeing photos of the Standard and it looks fantastic. Quite a rare model is it not.

Thanks, not sure how many Pennants are left. Only seen three others in all the time I have had it. The blue one that used to be in Gaydon is only 15 miles from me. He used to have a black and grey one previously. I shall never sell it. Hard to believe it's only nine years older than the R16.

The important bit is the R16.

I have a head start here, so if you need anything besides sheet metal and wob, please liaise with me before anyone else rips you off.

If any of your ZX's are a Volcane - I shall worship you as a god! Got to get my hands on one of them at some point.
I thought you were looking to offload the Wobseley at some point... looks a good base.

Does the Pennant get out much?

Thanks. Decided to break yours then? I have loads of bits, should have most parts I need. Could do with a rust free front bumper though...

The Pennant gets used quite a bit in the summer. Never in the rain though. I would sell the Wobseley but nobody wanted it and I wasn't willing to subject myself to the public. I was only selling again losing some dry storage soon and I didn't want it to live outside but it's now thoroughly waxed and outside...

As for the ZXs, no mine aren't Volcanes although I have had a few of them years ago. Got a lovely scar on my arm from when I rolled my last one and my arm went through the window and rubbed on the road. In hospital I was looking forward to some sexy nurses but mine was a dead ringer for Robbie Coltrane. Similar accent too as I was in Scotland at the time. But anyway, if you do want a Volcane then I know if a petrol 16v for sale

Oh and I also have a 1998 Nissan Almera 1.6 SRi. One of only about 35 left. It was my mother's for about 18 years.

I probably have another car or two I can't recall right now.
