Title: Another one back on the road
Post by: Sledgewomble on September 27, 2011, 02:08:12 PM
My 1600 series 2 cpe is back on the road after a year of "running repairs"

Just need to get a can of spay paint (109 Ascot Green) to touch up where I've dealt with the little bits of rust that were starting to appear.  However she's now taxed, MOT'd and shiny.

Hopefully next year we'll get to some shows

Great to see another tidy car back on the road. I am impressed by the high standard of Betas on the road now. Finally they are cherished as they should be.

The Ascot Green has grown on me recently, probably because most I've seen in the past were in poor condition but when you see a nice one like yours it allows you to appreciate a different colur scheme. One which gives it a less sporty look but more of a classy look.

I agree with Eric that the quality of Betas on the road these days has improved, personally I put this down to all the "sheds" coming off the road leaving fewer, higher quality cars left.
