A trip to Lydden Hill 99% sure it's 1984

Excellent - brilliant quality. Yep certain it's '84 (No 1985 according to Ralph)

Any more ?

I bought an SX200 for £120 in '85 off a mate. I never had to do a thing to it. Ran like a dream. It ran so well, I got bored with it and sold it a year later for the same price!! DOH!

Easy come, easy go.

I sold a GT/TV along with a shed full of spares including another lambretta to fund the respray of my vw so I could use it as a wedding car- in 1994 for the princely sum of £250.00 !!!

Great pics........

No 111 the green meanie is in my garage now with it's group 5 brother!!
