STORY TIME - Remember about a month ago I shared images of this lovely local Mercedes 190E I bought.
Well - I knew of the car for a while and admired it locally every time I drove past. THEN one day- i saw it advertised by the side of the road with a simple 'For Sale' sign

What have i started today?!
Dad then asks me why his 406 has not been 'featured' on 'The Twitter'. After seeing multiple comments about it.
So here it is.
Bought new in 1999 it is STILL his daily driver. Covering just over 100,000 miles from new.

In 1998 my Dad rolled up at our house in a Brand New Rover 75.
Wedgewood blue with chrome EVERYWHERE
As a 10 year old boy, I thought it was stunningly beautiful
I still remember that feeling.
Would people be interested in videos hearing Dad's stories about his time at JLR?!

10 Years Ago today I finished the restoration (with help from Dad) of my Mk1a MR2.
I bought it to focus on getting me through a seriously tough time I was going through with my mental health.
I genuinely think this car helped make me, not break me.
Always happy to talk. Always

- 1985 Toyota MR2 Mk1a - I had a really tough time with my mental health in 2012/2013 - I bought this needing some light restoration as a first dabble into classic car ownership as my 'therapy'. It cost me £500 and attribute it to being my salvation. It means more than a car
