Piglets Cousin??

I've into been to Leeds this morning to look at a new toy :-$

As I on my way in & had just come off the 'feeder' that joins Hunslet Road near Guy Salmons & South Accomodation, this 110 windowed Hard-Top pulled in front of me.

I presume that is P 1 GEE


It's very good, I was about to write a comment about legality, but then I realised I didn't have a piece of headgear to consume...

No, it was something else, a fair bit cheaper as well :wink:

I have a horrid feeling Bagheera II will not be an RR :( The new 2007 revamp leaves me cold. So ...... it's going to be a toss up between an Aston Martin or a Lambo...... *unless* the 2008 model RR is something special (with an Aston engine....yeeeeeeeees!)

Although, admitedly, I was looking at a new Trek the other day.
However, my Dyna-Tech titanium hasn't been out of the garage for an absolute age :oops:
So no, it's not a new bike.

Toss up between an Aston or a Lambo? Which one would look better with a 2" Lift, Mud-Terrains and covered in Mud-Club Stickers :lol:

No, but I do know of 2 within, perhaps, 10miles (in a straight line) from here that live in the owners gardens.
Loads of money there

Not a helicopter, but there would be wire & wood involved.

In comparative terms, perhaps as expensive?

i'll hazard a guess (prepares to duck back under the parapet)

Could it be along the lines of a threshing machine seeing as you appear to be a fan of things ancient and agricultural ?

It'd be nice alnong with a ploughing engine, haven't got the room though.
However, this pair of Fowler ploughing engines


Which were named 'Fame' & 'Fortune' just went to auction & realised £148,000 for the pair

I added whilst posting on 'T&T' a question about another type of stringed instrument, that I don't think I can justify £1900 to SWMBO on a guitar, especially as I hadn't even picked one up in 20years until that Gretsch

However, if I could play like this man I'd find a way of justifying spending it :lol:

Beatles??

Out of curiosity
I've just been pricing up the Gretsch 6120SSLVO I mentioned above, as that's the signature model I'd like.

In the US it's $4,400, which equates to UK £2,362, plus all the import duties, distributors cut, shop mark-up, VAT, etc... :shock: ........

I don't think I'll dare ask the 'bottom line' price  for it

No the one for me has to be the 'Setzer Signature'  SSLVO  (Vintage Orange Lacquer) :(biglove):


As seen on the cover of the 'Cats' first LP

(which reminds me, a Double-Bass would be fun, played one a couple of times :lol: )

Without wishing to get into a musical arguement, is that really playing, or just showmanship?
Surely it's all over-dubs & effects pedals, etc....?

Setzer hardly uses any effects to get his sound  :wink:
