....how much carbon and reason can you put in it?

Well some carbon might squeeze in but its best to give up hope of there being any reason in there at all.

Gold defo comes a close second to 'metallic apple green'. My mum used to have a Volvo, a VERY Cheruby car.

Triumph Herald. What a classic.

When I finally get round to getting a property with a garage I am going to get either a Hillman Imp or maybe something like my mates car....



It's the cherub equivalent of the motoring world!

Big fan of the Hillman.
And if you want a Caterham, when you are ready I have a mate that is an authority on the subject. Remember 'the stig' on Top Gear diving the most recent nutty Caterham? Well he had the version before that one with Carbon everything. A total nutter!


Here's something else automotive that I've owned that is Cheruby...

Wish I still had it...

That car i posted is actually a Caterham replica, it's a Tiger Avon with a tuned 2 litre zetec lump. 180 bhp in a car that weighs a little over 500kg is a brown pant experience... especially in the winter with semi slicks!

A bike engined Hillman Imp would most certainly be the dogs danglies though!

Cappuccino!

I fancy one of those too!

Or an Autozam AZ-1, which is a similar K type car.

As you can see , I'm not going to win the most practical car award. I did think about putting one of the kids on ebay to solve seating dillema.

Great to see another left hand drive, driver...

my current one is just as impractical!
