There's a few more conveyance on there, I guess you could seek them out now that Pathe changed their titles, so we can watch them in better quality, something to keep you occupied.

But as mentioned when they changed their site all the links where useless, Here's a project for Barry: find everything I found plus more so we can rewatch them in better quality, it drove me mad when I did it! :o

I was mainly interested in the single rear light on this one. 2 5/8" diameter I think. Not sure of the part number or if it was standard?

I know this clip has been on before along with some of the Invalid carriage racing and games but new members to the forum might find it interesting.

And at this point I introduce my new electric microcar..............................................Am I banned yet?

Not yet, as Richard pointed out, you're in the rights spot, although 'chuck it in a skip' springs to mind when I look at this pic.
