      Quite possibly the worst car ever built by BL, and probably the one which made the biggest contribution to killing off BL. Your Datsun is almost a Bentley by comparison, even without an MOT...

          Would it be unkind to say that he was an unpleasant man who will not be missed? Because I'm happy to do so if nobody else wants to

            Gowon.
            Gowon.
            Gowon.

            Gowon.

              Go for it.

              Mohamed Al Fayed - still lying, in his grave.

                      It was the 'replacement' for the allegro that killed them off. The Maestro and The Montego.
