Well, the car show was a good distraction, but a bit crap. Amused myself on the way back by racing an Audi in the 2CV, and the guy who was coming to see the Capri was trying to keep up in a 1.2 Corsa. That was funny. He seemed a little miffed that I'd said "I'm in a 2CV, I'll probably be a little slow". I had the 2CV's tyres squealing on the corners and the Audi TDi driver was clearly wanting to go faster, but had a turn-off coming up. Wheee!

Was very tempted by a 1984 Buick Riviera 5.0 V8. Very. At £2K, it was a perfect '80s pimpmobile-in-waiting and a cheap basis for a lowrider.

Capri bloke complained about the paint. Well, duh. If it wasn't all patchy and touched in with the wrong shade, it would be a bit more expensive ;)
