Re: My 75 on Top Gear
I might get round to getting mine MOT'd earlier than usual then, may earn me some cred points with the kids, but then I remember what May did to the Alfa/Saab and that would only please mrs purple

Re: My 75 on Top Gear
I owned that 164 between 2003 and 2006.
I part exchanged it back in august 2006 on a 156v6 that i currently own.
Will have to post pictures of it that were taken only months berfore top gear got hold of it and carved it up!
Wish i had kept it.Was probably the best 164 cloverleaf left on a 96P.
