Would like but no not this time. Midget is definitely on the list for the future.

Nor could I. But I got itchy trigger fingers and did a last minute Sunday evening Best Offer under the starting price on this.

Which got rejected.

So I asked for some more pictures and I got a whole load of blurry ones back. Stuff like this.

I upped my offer by a couple hundred quid and won it.
I know what that is....but won't spoil the game.

🎵 What's that coming over the hill
Is it Walsgraves Transport? Is that Walsgraves Traaaaaansport? 🎵

Fun* fact, the lead signer for The Automatic (band who made that song) is a C++ programmer and joined the last company I worked for. Just as I was leaving there so I didn't get to meet him.

That looks nice, I'm jealous.

I'll have to get as proper British saloon once the MGB is back on the road and the missus has (hopefully) forgotten how much it all cost.
