    One of my favourite cars was a Lancia Beta Coupe 1300cc.
    Nice looking car, well put together. Very comfortable and quite nippy.

    The big problem was corrosion. I eventually got rid of it when the clutch started to go.

    A landmark report says scientists are 95% certain that humans are the “dominant
    cause” of global warming since the 1950s.

    The report by the UN’s climate panel details the physical evidence behind climate
    change.

    How much do these people get paid to come up with these conclusions ?
    So many lies have been told in the past, who do you believe ?

    it does look like he had some work done over the years, now could be the same one !

    I think you may be correct. It looks to have had a few mods.

    This is a slightly better picture of the museum robot. Similar to the Echo website picture, but not the same one methinks ?

    Thanks for that, not too clear though. Do you think that looks like the one on the Echo Website ?

    I agree with what you say.

    Although as far as cockpits are concerned. They can’s be an easy item to take around the country, so owners will
    probably just attend dedicated cockpit fests or local events. Maybe as they prefer to be amongst like minded people.
    The only military event we go to now, is Damyns Hall. Where there is a small flying display.
    This year I didn’t see the RR Merlin display, or the Spitfire and Hurricane replicas. Unless I just missed them ?

    We did also get the Shackleton cockpit at our local Help the Heroes Day.

    I don’t but a friend of mine has a couple.
    What would put me off, is that they don’t live for too many years.

    At a local garage who are not rip off merchants £200 the lot to repair(minus painting a rattle can or 2 from Halfrauds should do it)

    Although I live very close to one of their branches, I’d never take a vehicle there for a service.
    Or any place where the fitters are on bonuses to find as much wrong with your vehicle as they can.
