    My new 101!

    Well, the deal is done, and I'm now the proud owner of a RHD 101 GS... V8! Yup, V8. Once there and able to look at them all, it made sense to me to go with the V8, as being 'standard' (if a 101 can be standard) I should have less grief at the Rego place. The clinching thing for me tho was the Irish stuff on the door! Being Irish I had to own it!!! Have listened to my instincts tho and am not driving it back, as its not without its problems!! Here's a pic tho to be going on with and there will be more to follow once its home! Most importantly, a HUGE THANKYOU to Mick_Marsh for helping me get there and back today! Favour owed there! Good to meet other forum members too! Gav, I'll get to see your truck 'next time'!

    Well done. You certainly got the pick of the bunch.
    The early bird gets the worm, hey!
    Would love to get that wide track Sankey. There was lots of looking at that RAF hardtop too.

    Good for you mate. I'm sure a road trip home with it would have been good fun though?

    Well done on the purchase mate. It was probably a big ask to drive it back in the end after it had been sitting about for so long, but at least you got to take it for a road test and know how it drives.

    If you don't see mine before, you will see it at Melrose next year - hope yours is there too.

    Cheers - Gav.
    If you need to contact me please email homestarrunnerau@gmail.com - thanks - Gav.

    Were your ears burning Sleepy. We were talking about you. More accurately, your 101.

    Gav, Simon, Tom, AJ and Mick at AJ's.
    You should have been there too. Five blokes talking 101 all day. A very pleasant way to spend a Saturday.
