I need a beige flat cap. For when I drive my beige Volvo.

Sorry I can't put up a pic, it blends in to the gravel and paddocks here, in a square way.
Did I mention beige?

Mine is tweed (of course!)

And...

"I drive a Volvo, a beige one."

If it makes me as awesome as Nick Cage, I'll keep it

('tis a bloody nice car BTW, but doesn't leak oil, so it's not cool)

The Cagester would rock a 1300 or 1800 hard.

I'm new here...
Not totally BMC/BMH/BL but have a look at this utubery vid - the music's not too bad either...

Thanks unstuck for the help to embed the utubery vid...

Cheers

Absolutely bloody brilliant! There was one I couldn't identify... that funny little square thing. And that music. One of my favourite instrumentals:
"Time is Tight", originally by Booker T and the MGs.
I remember an interlude on TV in the early days when they didn't fill spaces with commercials. There was a T-Bucket cruising round what looked like the Kingston/Queenstown lake road to that music. Took me years to find out what it was! A few years ago I found a Booker T tape in the specials bin at the Whare-whare. Didn't even stop to check if Time is Tight was on it as I was sure it would be. It bloody wasn't!

Below the video on youtube there is a share function(word), click on that and then click on the embed video function(word) then right click on the url that appears in the box and copy, then paste on here.

Great vid, some cool old stuff there.

I will drive the fucker.

You could couldn't you!

I was thinking about taking a flight to meet the guy in CHCH.

It really is such a good buy at the price.

I had my eye on the new 2013 Tiger Sport, but this Stag ....................

I'll have to see if I can find enough spare cash. I wonder if the $15k lawnmower can wait
