Summat for the back room boys to have a think about



Bolton Abbey nr Skipton, where they host "cars in the park"

- bbq allowed
- large parking areas
- river
- herons and dragonflies
- topless women
- nice walks
- cheap as chips
- boring old abbey for stone watchers

Perfick!

Aye, I think it is unique.. Its a bit of a crackpot idea but I like it, loved my 156 JTD so I reckon it'd go well in a shiny red GTV

Its a bog standard 140bhp engine as well, unless he's had a sneaky remap done.. Less power than a twinny technically, but then thats the torque for you, always gives you the impression they are faster than they are. I'd love to have a go in it..
