Ladies and gentleman, I give you the first caption competition to be held on the club's brand new (and very shiny :) ) forums.

Making best use of the skill and wit 75 and ZT Owners are renowned for, tell us what caption is for this pic:

I know we discussed this before but are any of these cars still on the road as they are in those pics as I don't remember anyone saying yes?

Mike
5th November 2006, 10:48
Yes they are. Their vinyl covering was removed and then the cars were sold in the original Silver that lay underneath. I'll post some pics later

That's a pity although garish the vinyl wrapping looks impressive I was interested in how long it lasted

I was toying with going to that company for some in your face copies of the club banner for my rear screen.

Anyway getting off topic back to the caption comp ;).....................

Hi Shifter

I am sure we can relieve you of a mere £3? The guys have put a fair bit of their own funds into getting the site off the drawing board and think of all the fun you can have with avitars etc!

I believe you can pay via PayPal without having a PayPal account, but why not just sign up for one - it's not as if it will cost you anything?

Go to http://www.paypal.co.uk/uk

Sign up will take a couple of minutes, once you have the account open I'm sure will find it useful for all sorts of things.

I know this isn't a caption but who is the extremely pretty lady on the right?

One of the artists don't know her name, but she does have a rather winning smile, Probably because they had just been let loose to wrap all those beautiful cars in Vinyl.

The third car back on the right was displayed at my local Phoenix dealer so I have seen it close up. The vinyl was a perfect wrap, but it made the car look quite ill. I think it scared away more customers than enough.

I feel giddy just looking at the picture, let alone the actual car. There again, that might be the effect of the pretty lady on the right!!

"Up above the streets and houses rainbow climbing high,
if I had a 75 that colour I would definatly cry"

For those too young to remember, it's the theme tune for a kids TV program in the 70's called Rainbow! :o

MGR's Colour and Trim dept try to explain visually why their Black is "too green" and their Red is "too mauve"!

(I'm allowed to say that as I have genuinely had this argument with them!)
