Thread Name: BS: British Cars!
Subject: RE: BS: British Cars!
Allegro - my first car. head gasket, 5 clutches, several gear lever linkages, coolant explodable caps, split drivers door - it just cracked across one day, numerous sixpenny sized knuckle joints, steering rack - no way I'd remember it all, 5 wheel bearings and when I first heard one screaming I radioed my garage who said if it hasn't fallen off it'll be ok to drive in screaming as the later models fitted a big washer to stop the wheel falling off when the bearing goes
Never bought another British car
