Re: I seem to of done something stupid yet again
Eldo, 100percent. Not because it is necessarily a better car, I just think it would be a lot less pain. It is near your Frog storage, LHD and I would imagine it to be the easier to keep up together. Attractive though the Iso undeniably is, it would worry me. What, for instance, is going on just behind that nearside front airvent...?

Definitely the ISO for me.
I guess that it'd also be a lot easier and cheaper to run than the Maser or similar given its powertrain.

The second one.
They're both fucking awful but the red one is slightly less awful.

Re: I seem to of done something stupid yet again
Fuck me, what a choice! Two cars I have been fascinated by for 50+ years!
The Eldorado has to be less of a challenge but the Lele is probably worth the effort (assuming the effort doesn't involve rust.)

Can't get excited by the Caddy, the first one is lovely though

Re: I seem to of done something stupid yet again
Is the Lele Ford or GM? Surely a bucket list car. I do want a Marlboro edition at some point.

Re: I seem to of done something stupid yet again
I am trying to convince myself not to buy any more cars and as I already have one Bentley I will give that one a miss. The price is pretty good though. Talking of the Bentley I had to move it the other day and it was the first time I had seen in in 3 months. I had to fit a new battery but it fired up ok. It was running pretty shit though and has a bit of damp inside as a window was open a crack and won't go up. Common sense has got the better of me so I am going to leave the ISO and pretty likely to give the Caddy a miss as well. I am off to look at a Lotus Europa twin cam tomorrow though at the local tat auction. It might be worth a punt if it goes cheap enough. I also have an eye on a Panhard 24 that goes to auction at the end of March. Typically both these auctions are on when I am travelling back home from France with the Europa and off to France for the Panhard. They are both fairly local though so not too much of an issue. I did have a rather expensive day yesterday though as I had to pay the balance for the house in France and will hopefully be getting the keys on Monday ! I also had to pay the remaining council tax on it. They have to be paid in January so the seller had only just done it. I had to cough up for 11 months tax which was a grand total of 530 Euro which is a bit of a bargain compared to here.
