All is fair Dicky, I bought the car based on what I saw so fear not. Did you swipe the bird badge too?

Just spotted these ivory bakelite ashtrays, original Happich No. 5505001 and at 99 euros each being sold by an Isetta parts dealer. Any good for Schmitts? See pic

Just what every Schmitt owner needs for when his engine seizes up. All that is needed now is a packet of Capstans or Players to complete your none PC identity. Funny how the world changes. I wonder if Darleks use these instead of some of their bumps. Handy when you nip off for a fag after some serious exterminating and at 99 Euros, a snip.

All this talk of period ashtrays, but I wonder how many of you actually smoke? Isn't smoking in an enclosed space more harmful then regular smoking!

I know smoking is madness and un PC but if you have a footprint of an ash tray on your side panel and a couple of screw holes its the only thing to fit plus handy to keep your Dartford crossing money in!

Beans, beans, good for your heart
The more you eat the more you fart
The more you fart the better you feel
So please eat beans when driving your Peel.
Just remember: as one door closes behind you, another slams in your face

You ask this of two stroke fans? Personally I am into blowing asbestos dust round with a compressor in my spare time!

All these dangers are made more visible and you are made to feel guilty about it. Pity it does not run to food additives, dodgy petrol additives and a host of other things which were not as prevalent as when I had a gasper behind the bike shed as a kid. A strange world we live in with stranger values!

Well soon you will have the option of the Bonko Auto Toilet Roll dispenser which will be more useful when the Dartford crossing insists on only paper money! I like the option off one interior set I have with these two holes which simply resolved the situation by marking one hole in Biro as in and the other out. Brilliant!

What's a gasper?  Do you mean a cheeky B&H?

As for venting in a Trident that's the least of your worries.   Being squashed by some mindless bint in her X6 or Q7 springs to mind.

things beautiful and excellent, shine forth far better when other people
praise them than when they boast so confidently of their own achievements."

I think a gasper is traditionally a none filter cigarette but in principle yes. Hated smoking but if its banned you have to do it. I had a suitably adapted packet of Polos made in the back of the woodwork room to hide the single contraband and never got caught like most who's most imaginative move was the common hollow pen.

Q7, driven as erratically as Spike Milligan's sketch show but with less humour.

which micros are safe to be driven casually by one hand anyway ? and which smooth ride would ensure you didnt have a lapful of ash with all that shaking going on ? explains why so few micros had radios too as again not really suitable . they're just accessories
