You must be so organised Pete, I've just been rooting around to try and find a photo of a Ford Capri (i had three of them ) but failed miserably .

I have to confess that I've had similar styles in the past ?

I slept in a Wolesley Hornet once when the girl I got off with wouldn't let me into her parents house. I did get into the house in the morning though and her parents made me breakfast..... result ? I can confirm though that it's not a comfortable car to sleep in ?

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm, I'm not sure I can answer that. We don't have a lot of sand (that you can ride on) in the UK so I don't have much experience to compare but the T700 is a fair bit heavier than a DR650.

I'd never knock a Cortina Pete but the one I had was definitely a lemon, not only in colour ?

The front forks were the let down, to softly sprung, A lot of owners put differnet front ends on them, mainly Yamha conversions as I remember. It was a very nice bike but the DR650 is a better bike imo.

Hello ?

Worst car I had was a Daytona Yellow Mk3 Cortina, I felt a twat as I sold my Suzuki TS250ER to buy the Ford and the seller stitched me right up. The head gasket blew after two weeks (he disguised the overheating issue by taking the thermostat out) and the two of the wheels only had 3 wheel nut holding them on. It looked like this but a lot shabbier............

I'll have another go........

One of my favourite Dakar related photos, me with Patsy Quick....... Patsy Quick is an English off road motorcycle racer. She was the first British woman to compete in the Dakar Rally in 2003 and became the first British woman to complete it in 2006.

I found some more photos of the repaint, most of the panels I found on ebay then I prepped and painted them myself.

Dave in the corner with a mate...............

any good ?

Takes me back to my youth, I had that on a imported 7'' single.

I'm trying to build my number thingy up ?

what about 73 ?

or even 35

of course it could be 21

but I reckon it's 7

I've been told that it's always 42 ?

Any photos of your Serow, I have a soft spot for them as it was a Serow that got me trail riding again.

Brilliant Yen and all that done on a Peugeot ?

Pure ruggedness Pete
