My 2nd launch car

thomas 75 connie · 26th February 2016, 14:15

Hello people,

On Monday 22/02/2016 I came into work on my evening shift and was greeted with an envelope.

In that envelope is a persons address and phone number that I have spoken to before while out on my rounds delivering peoples shopping in the home shopping vans.

Long story short I have aqquired another Launch car,This one being older than both mine (V114 HDY) and my fathers (T34 BDV)

I needed a way to get it back so phoned up a good friend on here and we were set for this morning 26/02/2016.

I got there about 1 minute after Paul and had a chat with Paul and the previous owner.

The car was then put onto the trailer and strapped down.

We then set on our way me following.

When we arrived home the car was put onto the drive.

Its not as clean as mine but after the bumpers are done then it should be a nice presentable launch car.

Hope that you like.

Here are a few pictures from Tuesday

To say I am chuffed would be an understatement.
Thanks for looking Thomas

Any chance of getting them all to POL?
I have actually been contemplating getting all 4 of our MGR cars there. The big obstacle is finding 4 willing drivers.

I'm having the same problem Victor. Too many cars and too little people to transport them. I think I'm bringing my vitesse this year
