Just the one Jag owner - Hooli. I don't own a Jag. You must be thinking of my mate Tommy.

I run a 23 year old Rover. Ergo, you're all capitalist bastards.

As amusing as this automotive “4 Yorkshireman” sketch is, back to the issue at hand.

There’s a reference to a hood frame appearing to be too long and hanging over the windscreen header rail on Google in a question on an MG forum, the answer there is that the frame needs adjusting. In that case some of them were seized.

By the way , I’m considerably poorer than all of you, my name hasn’t been on a logboook since 1998, even owning a Skoda Roomster would be a luxury I can’t begin to imagine.

So all your Mercedes etc are being stored for someone else?
Or would the taxman start asking where all the money came from?
I strongly suspect the latter.

I've never seen a Roomster described as a luxury before though, especially by someone who goes by Rolls to Cannes.

Thanks for this.
I'll have another word with them.

Antibes, Cannes is much too nouveau.

Sorry, Sheringham is about my limit as Blakeney is too posh.
