elansprint72 Posted June 28, 2009 Share #1 Posted June 28, 2009 Advertisement (gone after registration) Our Winter(!) project is coming along nicely; all the mechanicals are done, a set of works-style wheel arches are on order and the 90s interior will be replaced by a 60s one in due course.

Guest flatfour Posted June 29, 2009 Share #6 Posted June 29, 2009 People loved them is spite of their inherent weaknesses. We delivered over 30 one August 1st and had 18 back within two days with faults - none ours I need to add - mainly gear selection and water leaks, rattles. (Our record was one year to locate a rattle in a new Rover 2000 - even the factory coldn't find it) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

elansprint72 Posted June 30, 2009 Author Share #10 Posted June 30, 2009 Hi pete very nice indeed, a much loved car by everyone I belive! I'm not sure if you have seen the new aston martin MINI, Here is a link Aston Martin Cygnet : cours de rhétorique times have changed! warm regards david I think Aston Martin have run out of times they can produce models which only an expert can tell the difference between! They are now exploring the outer limits- have you seen this dreadful barge? Autocar - Lagonda returns - as an SUV Cygnet is a very odd choice for a name, in Hans Christian Andersen/Danny Kaye speak it means UGLY DUCKLING!!!!!! How apposite. Thanks for commenting.
