Have too admit not really watched these but will soon as I finish the series of sweeny. :D

I have too admit I'm really happy I didn't realise how close I am too the mark but I'm getting there been offered 3 Granada's today after my post on the owners club.

I thought it was going too be well over £15000 or more but if I carry on Might very well be owning one before xmas or after.

I'm so close I can taste the Granada petrol fumes. :D

I was watching line of duty a couple of weeks ago, the 2 main characters were on their radios talking to each other using the call signs three seven and four five......... Jed mercurio was obviously a Professionals fan in his younger days. ;)

Edit - it seems that I wasn't the only one to notice it

Both are on TV. The signature tune from the Sweeny is timeless, I love it.
Never knew the professionals drive a TR7.
